Mid American Energy owns most of the street lights in Grimes. A streetlight that is on during the day or repeatedly cycles on and off needs attention just the same as a light that is completely out. To report a streetlight problem online please use this link to Mid American Energy's streetlight repair request form. ( This will open in a new window )
