Mora Municipal Utilities / MMU

06/18/2026

To all customers- MMU customers, in the Wood Street construction project area, are noticing a strong gas smell from the sewer lines. We want to let you know that this is part of a sewer lining project north of the project area. If you have this smell, (1) please open your windows and vent your home, (2) run water in all fixtures including your floor drains. Your drains are built to keep the gasses out of your home but need water in them to make that happen.

This work will continue today and possible into the day tomorrow.

The sheriff's office has been notified at this time of the project.
If you have questions, please call the utilities number at 678-1451 and you will be directed to the appropriate person.
Thank you.

**Mora Municipal Utilities Power Update-4:25 pm 6/10/26**
All power is back up and running at this time. Please call the utilities phone number at 679-1451 if you are still without power.
Staff would like to thank all customers for their patience and understanding during this event.

While weather is everchanging, addressing outages at MMU is based on the area affected at that time. Staff does its best to methodically work through areas to ensure power can be restored safely. These actions involve manpower and staff "walking" the line to make sure all lines are safe to energize. Please understand that power lines may look fine in your area but are compromised further down the connecting line and need to be cleared to restore power, taking time that is not understood due to the safety checks done.

Thank you for being a customer and thank you for your patience and understanding during these unplanned weather caused outages.

The majority of the power is back on in town at this time with the exception of a 3-block radius for Edwards south to Ford and union st south and east to areas of Mclean St. Please call the outage number or city hall to report any outages that staff may have not yet gotten to.
