Pemberville peeps!
December 4, 2024
Dear Residents and Businesses of the Village of Pemberville,
The Village has been informed by First Energy that there will be a complete shutdown of electricity to the Village Monday, December 16, 2024.
If you pay a Village of Pemberville utility bill, this will include you.
This will be a complete shutdown of the power to the entire village scheduled to be between the hours of 8 am and 4 pm in order to power up the newly restored north substation on College Avenue.
Since the Village buys our electricity from First Energy (we distribute) we are at their mercy regarding the timing of this shut-off. It is asked that you prepare for this outage in advance by taking basic preventative measures, such as charging your phones, making arrangements if you have medical needs that require electricity, or refraining from doing anything that an interruption of power could ruin.
If you have your telephone on VOIC, please know that you will NOT have phone service. (cell phones should be fine) The bank will not be able to process any transactions, and the stores and restaurants will most likely not be open for business.
If you have a neighbor or friend that you typically look after, you may want to consider reaching out in advance of this scheduled shutdown.
We apologize in advance for this unfortunate event and hope that you can prepare adequately with this notice. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the village office at 419-287-3832 or call me directly at 419-419-9645
Thank you,
Carol A Bailey, Mayor
