To support local residents affected by power outages related to the Dixie Fire, an outdoor Community Resource Center has been opened at Janesville Elementary School, 464-555 Main Street in Janesville.
The CRC will be open from 5:00p.m. to 10:00p.m. today, July 21st, and from 8:00a.m. until 10:00p.m. on Thursday, July 22nd.
The CRC will allow affected residents to access resources including:
- A safe location to meet their basic power needs, such as charging medical equipment and electronic devices.
- Up-to-date information about the event.
- Water, snacks and other essential items to reduce hardships to our customers.
To keep customers and communities safe, all resource centers reflect appropriate COVID-19 health considerations and federal, state and county guidelines.
- Facial coverings are required at all sites and physical distancing is required at indoor sites, regardless of vaccination status.
- Supplies are handed out so customers can “grab and go” but customers may also opt to stay and charge their devices on site.
- In instances of high demand, medical device charging will be prioritized.
- Surfaces are regularly sanitized.
- For the health and safety of the community, we ask customers not to visit a center if they are exhibiting any symptoms of illness.
