Full Notification

The City will be conducting a planned electrical outage, to fully re-energize our south substation, following Evergy's power outage on
Sunday, November 10.

The planned outage will take place at 11:30 p.m. on Monday, November 25, and is scheduled to last about 30 minutes.
Our hope is that doing the work late at night will cause as little disruption as possible in your daily routine.

This planned outage will only affect those who were without power during the outage on November 10.
When the outage occurred on November 10, City staff were able to effectively bypass the south substation by drawing power from the City's other 2 stations. This allowed our residents to get power back on nearly 10 hours sooner than those who had to wait for Evergy to fully replace their damaged utility pole.

The work we will do on November 25, will be undoing that bypass and allowing power to begin flowing from the south substation. This is essential to keeping a balanced power grid and keeps any one substation from carrying too much of the communities power load.
