As of October 12 there are still many areas in town that have lines down and poles destroyed. Please be patient with our utility crews and give them room to work. When travelling, plan alternate routes as some roads are still closed due to lines and trees. Also, please do not cross or drive over/under downed power lines. You do not know if they are energized and it only takes an instant to cause injury or death.
