Streetlight Outage Reporting Information
When a non-functioning streetlight is discovered, you can report it directly to American Electric Power (AEP), South Central Power Company (SCP) or the City of Lancaster. Since there are 3 different entities who maintain the city's street lighting services, you will need to determine which one to contact.
