COLUMBIA, MO (July 26, 2013) - A power outage has affected buildings on the north side of Broadway, between 7th and 10th. The outage at City Hall means that credit card payments cannot be processed, including payments for utilities, business licenses, parking passes, building permits, etc. Payments by cash or check can be processed. City computers and copiers are down, so staff is unable to look up accounts, make copies or provide information electronically. The City's website GoColumbiaMo.com is working. We apologize for the inconvenience, but advise customers to wait until Monday to conduct business at City Hall.
The outage occurred when a construction crew working downtown struck an underline distribution line. Water and Light Director Tad Johnsen says repair crews are on the scene. "You never know until you get in there how extensive the work will be, but at this time we estimate service will be restored before the end of the day," said Johnsen.
