LIPA owns nothing and buys it power from private companies. I'm not sure who owns the distribution system, it may be LIPA. In the present US climate taking over a private company and making it into a true municipal one doesn't happen even in cases as extreme as this one.
Regardless of how obvious the examples of the value of non-profit enterprises for certain key sectors of society, the US keeps selling off the publicly owned resources and getting higher prices and lower quality as a consequence. The new owners do get rich however having been handed effective monopolies. Policies not Politics ---- Daily Landscape
