The Electric Department maintains a complete system of electric conductors, switches and transformers, and 57 miles of utility lines for the distribution of electricity. Electricity is purchased from L.C.R.A. with some local electric production from the City's hydro plant.

Primary functions include installing and maintaining street lights, trimming trees around electrical lines, reading electric and water meters monthly, and preparing for any special events such as the "Come and Take It" celebration. The department helps all City departments in maintaining the lighting and electrical needs at all City facilities.
