Hartford City: Newberry Building Loses Power During Storm — AEP Inspection Set for Monday

By The Blackford Ledger The Blackford Ledger

From the Hartford City Redevelopment Commission meeting on June 11, 2026

RDC President Ron Dudelston reported an ongoing electrical power issue at the Newberry Building. During a recent rainstorm, power went out at approximately 11:00–11:30 PM. The cause has not been determined — it is unclear whether the problem is on AEP's side or the building's internal wiring.

AEP is scheduled to shut down power to the building on Monday, June 16, to investigate. The building will be without power that day, which is the People's Marketplace's regular day off.
