Join the Paper City Neighborhood Watch in our Light the Night campaign—a community initiative to deter crime by keeping our neighborhoods well-lit after dark. Turning on your porch lights from dusk till dawn is a simple yet powerful way to increase visibility, promote safety, and show unity against crime. Together, we can brighten our streets and protect our community—one light at a time.
A dark street isn’t just inconvenient—it’s unsafe. If you see a streetlight that’s out, flickering, or broken, report it directly to Consumers Energy or call 1-800-477-5050. Let’s keep our streets lit and our neighborhoods safe.
