The forecast is calling for heat index values between 100° - 109° through much of this week. Please take precautions to stay cool, stay hydrated, and check on family members, neighbors, and pets during these extreme temperatures.

⚠️ Due to the forecasted heat, all non-pay electric service disconnections are temporarily paused.

Once weather conditions allow, non-pay disconnections will resume. To avoid service interruption, all past-due balances must be paid in full or your account must have a credit balance by 7:30 a.m. on Monday, July 6, 2026.

📞 If you are unable to make your payment, we encourage you to contact the office before the deadline to discuss possible payment options.
