Thank you to the crews from Batavia’s Electric Department for their quick response and hard work restoring power following yesterday’s outage on the southwest side of Batavia.
The outage was caused by a lightning strike to a utility pole across from the main entrance to Alice Gustafson School. Crews inspected the pole, reinforced it with through bolts to prevent further splitting, and safely restored service to affected customers. The damaged pole is scheduled to be replaced later this week.
We appreciate the dedication of our electric crews, who work around the clock to keep power reliable and our community safe, especially during severe weather events.

🚧 You may notice a new vehicle driving your streets. Here’s what it’s doing.
The City is using IrisPRO Pave, a specialized road assessment tool, to evaluate the condition of local streets. Equipped with cameras and sensors, the vehicle collects data on pavement conditions such as cracks, wear, and surface quality. This helps us identify areas that may need maintenance or repair.
Why it matters:
Regular pavement assessments help keep roads safe, smooth, and reliable. By identifying issues early, we can make smarter, more cost-effective repairs and avoid larger, more expensive problems down the road.
What to expect:
The IrisPRO Pave operates like a normal vehicle and will not disrupt traffic or your daily routine.
What happens next:
The data collected will guide future street maintenance and improvement plans. This helps us prioritize repairs where they’re needed most.
This is part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining safe, high-quality roadways across the community.
