With the shorter days of winter months upon us, it is even more important to be mindful of streetlight outages in our neighborhoods.
Report all outages to Dominion Energy via their website or by telephone (866-366-4357).
Before reporting a streetlight outage, take note of a couple of things that will help Dominion repair the right light!
For repairs that can’t be made by changing a bulb, Dominion will post a color-coded wrap on the pole indicating the status of the repair.
BLUE
There is an overhead problem, and repairs may take 2–3 weeks.
GREEN
There is an underground problem, and repairs may take 2–3 weeks. A yellow wrap may replace the green wrap on the pole if extensive damage is found.
YELLOW
There is extensive damage to the underground cable. Special equipment and permits may be required for Dominion to make a fix. Typical repair time is 45+ days.
For downed power lines or streetlight poles, please call 866-366-4357 immediately.

On Monday, September 9th, starting at 6:00 PM, we took a field trip to Elizabeth River Project’s new Ryan Resilience Lab located at 4160 Colley Avenue. From 6 pm to 636 pm, Brandon from Electrified Marina brought two of their fan tail boats to the dock behind Ryan Resilience Lab for attendees to enjoy 15 min rides to the Granby Street bridge and back while learning more about Electrified Marina and their electric watercraft. Starting just before 6:40 pm we began the general session meeting with a report from our Community Resource Officer, and a few updates from the board. The night culminated with an engaging and informative walking tour of the new Ryan Resilience Lab hosted by Jamie Melvin from Elizabeth River Project, accompanied by a Q&A session throughout the tour.
