Streetlight outages:

Please contact us if you see or have a street light out at either 754-4150 or email at scraig@ci.tumwater.wa.us.

We will need an accurate location, then we will verify whether they are in the city, and whether they are in the City's ownership. Some street lights may be owned by Puget Sound Energy (PSE), City of Olympia, State of Washington, or Thurston County. If the light is another's responsibility (PSE, Oly, State, County) we report the outage. If the light is ours, we try to have it repaired in 2-days repair (same as PSE). Should the pole be knocked down....plan for at least two months!
