The City of Lakeport has received confirmation from PG&E that electrical power restoration for Lake County has begun. The restoration process may take several hours or more to be completed because PG&E must perform line inspections. During this time, we urge the public to be respectful of and cooperate with PG&E workers so that their work can be completed quickly and safely.
If you have spoiled food as a result of a power outage:
- Please put unpackaged food waste in your BLACK waste cart that is used for normal trash.
- Please put food packaging in your BLUE recycling cart depending on material (visit http://www.lakeportdisposal.com for guidelines).
