说明
The area of Westville between Alston, Central, Edgewood and Chapel Streets is very frequently hit with power outages - even more so than the rest of Westville. And it's been getting worse.
Anecdotally, I've spoken to people who've lived here for more than 30 years and say this section of our neighborhood has always been dark when weather hits. However we've been experiencing more frequent non-weather outages lately. Overnight, a few times a month, there will be short 10-15 minute outages.
Neighbors - can I ask you to please share your experiences with the outages in the comments here? Have they been getting worse for you lately? I've spoken to Alderman Marchand and he's willing to raise this issue higher if we have some useful details to share.
Possible solutions include having this area prioritized in UI's current plan to upgrade the neighborhood, or adding another feed line into this section of the grid. If you have other suggestions, please share!
Thank you! Sue U.M. // Westvillian

Today 1-21-16 the power went out in a wide section of the area described above at 12:10pm, and at this writing UI advises that it won't be restored until 6:30pm.
This doesn't appear to be weather related in any way, as it's a clear sunny day. Several intersection lights were out or "blinking" including Central/Chapel and as far ranging as the large Rt 34 / Forest Road intersection.
