A Legacy of Local Investment.
We’re not just your local energy, water, and telecom providers, we’re also your friends, neighbors—and customers, too.
Community Owned. Community Invested.
Brookings Municipal Utilities (BMU) has proudly served the community for more than 125 years, rooted in a simple but powerful idea: when essential services are owned locally, the entire community benefits. Since our earliest days, BMU has existed to support the City of Brookings by providing reliable, affordable, and forward‑thinking utility services—always with our customers at the center of every decision.
What began as a single utility has grown alongside the city itself. Today, BMU delivers water, wastewater, electric, and telephone services as a municipal utility, while also competing in the modern marketplace by offering TV and high‑speed internet services. Through every expansion and innovation, our mission has remained the same: reinvest in Brookings, respond to community needs, and deliver dependable service you can trust.
