How and to whom does one report a burnt out streetlight in Sooke?
I live on Ludlow Road and the streetlight at the corner of Sooke and Ludlow has been burnt out for months.
I have called the District of Sooke in beginning of August and again in September to report it. As of this evening it is still burnt out (Sept 30).
I explained to the clerk that there are two well used bus stops right there, to and from Victoria, a fire hydrant and also a large open ditch. It is a dark, fairly isolated area as the houses on Sooke Road are back from the road and the house closest has a huge hedge between it and the road.
I don’t understand the lack of concern or ability to change a light bulb. Surely there must be a correct procedure or place to report it so that it will get fixed in a reasonable manner before something serious happens.
I would appreciate finding out the correct procedure.
