Street light issues are handled differently depending on who owns them.  

• See a map of City-owned street lights below. If a street light is city-owned, submit a report to the Public Works department.
• Streetlights located within a business complex or adjacent to a business are the responsibility of the business owner or property manager. Please complete a Code Enforcement complaint to report a light that is out http://www.cityofeagle.org/418/Code-Enforcement-Complaint
• Streetlights located in a subdivision are the responsibility of the Home Owners Association (HOA).
