Community Benefits

We invest more than meters, poles and wires in the community. Our civic pride and commitment to excellent customer service extends to making Maquoketa a better place to live and work.

Since 1919, Maquoketa Municipal Electric Utility has seen our community grow to become what it is today. We’re proud to have supplied the electric power that has helped to make this growth possible. 

We’re equally proud that the volunteer efforts of our employees and the utility have contributed to the development, growth and well-being of our great community. The cornerstone of a not-for-profit, municipally owned and operated utility is “local people working together to meet local needs.” And that’s just where the benefits to the community start.
