Entergy does not pay for neighborhood street lighting. I don't get why this is such a surprise to everyone.

On a side note, we tend to go through LEDs in our home about 20% faster than good ole fashion bulbs that costs a fraction of the price...

I keep seeing this.. if it’s true, y’all are either using the cheapest dog shite Chinese bulbs known to man, or y’all are putting them in fixtures that can’t handle LEDs.

I installed 25-30 Philips LED bulbs damn near 10 years ago and still havent had to replace a single one. And I have three more of them under my carport that haven’t even been turned off (outside of power outages) in at least 8 years.

Why don't my property taxes cover this?

Because the state doesn’t maintain the electrical grid.

potentially resulting in a small increase in your monthly rate for lighting service.

Honestly probably won’t be much, if anything.

So they gonna charge me a monthly fee for "lighting service" to change an LED bulb that lasts for 10 years?

Yes. Street lights are either paid for by the city, municipality, HOA, or the customer. Local taxes, fees, or direct bill.

Or, call and say you don’t want the street light.
