This weekend is when we turn the clocks back one hour and it will be dark by 5:00 pm next week.  This is a great opportunity to make sure the streetlights on your block are functioning properly.  Your home light timers might need adjusting as well.  If your streetlight is not working, please call 311 with an accurate address such as “in front of 1234 Pocket Road” or “the south east corner of Pocket Road and Greenhaven Drive.”  You can also email the information to 311 at the following address:

311@cityofsacramento.org providing an address or accurate location.
