Other updates
With housing around the area losing and regaining power since an Anderson Road power line caught fire on Monday night, Mayor Robyn Tannehill reminded the community that the ‘temporary warming shelter’ in the Oxford Activity Center is available for those who need it. The shelter continues to remain open for 24 hours a day and will provide food and cots.

Tannehill also detailed the power outages around the area in her statement. She said Oxford Utilities is attempting to fix the ongoing issues as quickly as possible.

“If you see an Oxford Utilities truck and employees, please yell out your front door that they are appreciated,” Tannehill said.

Rob Neely, general manager at Oxford Utilities, said Oxford Utilities saw an increase in concern about frozen pipes this week as well.

“When the weather drops, the usage goes up,” Neely said. “Today we had a lot of frozen pipe calls, and we’ll get more of those tomorrow, but hopefully, we can keep the power on through the night.”

The men’s basketball game at LSU at the women’s basketball game at Arkansas, both scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 17, have also been postponed.
