 The power was off in some areas of Freeport since 8:12 p.m. last night (Wednesday July 19). During the day on Thursday, July 20, ComEd could not or would not provide its customers with an estimate of when service would be restored. Around 4:00 p.m. on Thursday, July 20 ComEd finally estimated that power would be restored around 7:00 a.m. Friday, July 21. 35 hours with no power, but who real cares! In the meantime, people waited while their food rotted not knowing when power would be restored. It’s too bad ComEd doesn’t care about Freeport, but it is even worse that the City Administration did nothing to advise residents of the situation. Oh well, I guess Freeport is too busy tearing down houses, creating new TIF’s to shift the real estate tax burden to homeowners and small businesses, and hiring new police personnel. Obviously, some areas of Freeport are more important than others. I guess the affected areas just are not important.
