We are still not done yet, but the linemen from all the 25 other cities this morning have asked to extend a HUGE THANK YOU to the City of Menasha residents. They are blown away by your generosity, kindness, food, and beverage donations. You have made their experience here unforgettable and they are beyond appreciative. THANK YOU!

8/3/26 1:15pm Update - Crews continue to work to get everyone back in power and currently have approximately 90% of our service territory energized. They are now working on rebuilding to get power restored to the hardest hit areas which include areas downtown east of Racine St and Doty Island. If you had to have an electrician repair your damaged mast or electrical service, please contact us at 920-967-3400 once the electrician’s work is done so we can get you on the list to get power restored.

Update 12:45pm - The water boil notice for Village of Fox Crossing, WI for residents that live on the east side is over.

Separately, please DO NOT move utility cones or barricades on the streets they are working on. These are dangerous areas to enter. Please wait until the line trucks have left the area and removed the barricades to return.

8/1/26 - Here is an updated list of electricians to contact and what you are looking for with the service to your house. If the service mast is damaged, you must contact an electrician to fix first. Then contact us at 967-3400.

We are working on an update to release shortly. Crews have been making good progress with rebuilding entire distribution lines and poles and starting to connect services to the houses.

If you have left a message, because of the spotty cell service, we are having a hard time understanding your message.

We want to clarify the streets where the water boil notice is for. Menasha Water Utility customers have never been issued a boil notice. Please see this map for the streets that are affected.
