Problem: [Constituent states via Contact Form on 10/2: I am writing to bring to your attention an issue that has been affecting the safety and quality of life in our community—specifically, the lack of adequate street lighting going towards the end of Neponset Valley Parkway. Over the past few months, I and several of my neighbors have noticed that the streetlights on that block are either malfunctioning or not providing sufficient lighting during the evening and nighttime hours. This has made the area quite dark and has raised concerns about pedestrian safety, as well as the potential for accidents or increased crime. I don't know if this has been already reported to the city’s maintenance services but we would like to see improvements. As a proud Boston resident, I am sure you can understand the importance of well-lit streets for public safety and community well-being. We would be very grateful if you could look into this matter and ensure that our streetlights are properly maintained or upgraded. Improved lighting would go a long way in making our neighborhood feel safer and more secure for all residents, especially during the darker months ahead. Thank you in advance for your time and attention to this issue. I look forward to hearing from you and hope for a prompt resolution. Sincerely,]

Problem: [constituent states that street light was removed because of construction and he is requesting it be reinstalled. He is also requesting a call back]

Problem: [Const. reports the entire length of Livermore St. needs their lights upgraded. She states the street lights are all dim, making it dangerous for pedestrians walking by at night time and children walking to school in the morning. When the lights are working as they are now, they do not assist in increasing the visibility for those passing by.]

Problem: [Constituent states street light that was removed, requesting for another street light to be placed back.]

Problem: [Constituent states: "Please replace street light at 535 Newbury Street."]

Problem: [Constituent reporting a lamp post attached to their building that is rusty, bent, and broken, but has a relatively new LED light. Wondering if the lamp post can be replaced.]

Problem: [With regard to this case … when you repaired the light you used a fixture unlike the other back bay lights. I called and you promised to replace when you had some of the appropriate fixtures. Can you do that now? Thx. Please reference case #101003647687]

Problem: [Constituent states the lights on the entirety of this street are so dim and is requesting brighter lights. There are a limited amount of lights since it is a small side street but with them not being so bright there is an increase in theft on this street.]
