Street Lights
Street lights located along Borough roads are maintained by Matanuska Electric Association. Street light bills are funded by individual road service areas. The borough currently pays the monthly light bills for 395 street lights located throughout the Borough.
Contact Matanuska Electric Association at (907)761-9300 to report an outage.
Contact your individual Road Service Area Supervisors to request a street light in your area. If you are unsure of who your supervisor is, contact the Public Works Department (907) 861-7755 for this information. Individuals will need to request their Supervisor to include the street light installation in the capital improvement program.
The borough considers the following factors when analyzing the location for a street light:
- Public safety
- Site distance
- School bus stop
- Traffic density
