Geneva owns and operates its own electric utility, and we take great pride in providing reliable electric service to our residents and businesses. However, like all utilities, we are susceptible to outages caused by bad weather, animals, equipment issues and more. This blog is designed to provide updates on what caused outages after service has been restored. Large-scale incidents will be posted in real-time on the City's Alert Center on the our website homepage. Customers can subscribe to receive these updates via Notify Me.

[ARCHIVED] Electric Project Scheduled For South Third Street In Downtown Geneva

The original item was published from October 9, 2023 4:16 PM to November 10, 2023 12:00 AM

A City contractor will be boring in a conduit Tuesday and Wednesday, Oct. 10-11, in downtown Geneva.
 
The work will occur in the eastern parkway just north of the tracks on Third Street. All traffic lanes will remain open as will access to local businesses and the Third Street Commuter Parking Deck.
 
The boring will be noisy, and the sidewalk may be blocked at times for pedestrians as crews access the underground electric vault. Seven outside parking spaces south of the parking deck will be closed during the project.
