Streetlight Repair
If you see a streetlight that’s not working, please call Dominion Energy at (866) 366-4357. They’re responsible for repairing all streetlights and watch lights in the City of Norfolk. Most streetlights are located on the verges in front of properties.
If the streetlight behind your house is on Ghent Square property, it’s probably a “watch light.” Management is responsible for calling those repairs into Dominion energy. Contact management by sending an email to lrattan@communitygroup.com.
When reporting streetlight or watch light outages, please provide the full pole numbers (tags found on the pole, ex: N0### XX###). If there are no indicators or they are not legible, please provide the closest address/intersection.
You can also find your streetlight pole number on the map at bottom of screen. Feel free to contact lrattan@communitygroup.com if you have an update for the pole.
Residents are encouraged to report streetlight outages to Dominion Energy promptly and often, if necessary.
