PUC Power Restored

This just in from City Hall
Power has been restored to all areas served by the Grand Marais Public Utilities. If you do not have power, please contact the office at 387-1848. We thank all customers for their patience and understanding.

And a Note of Thanks
I'd like to echo the gratitude many PUC customers have expressed to the PUC Electrical Department employees that have worked so hard under difficult circumstances to restore electricity to all customers. Thank you for a job well done.

It's also important to note the teamwork between all City Departments to restore services and normalcy to Grand Marais. Phone calls were answered and information was provided, priorities were established, streets were cleared of fallen trees, street lamps, and dangerous debris. Clean water was made available to anybody who needed it. These are just some of the additional tasks accomplished during the storm event and aftermath.

Last, but not least, thanks to everybody who managed to make it work without power these past few days. Your patience and resourcefulness in these past few days was great.
