Underground power lines to be a benefit for Hillsboro Residents, city to hold open houses 

The City of Hillsboro is planning to start Phase One of an electrical project next year, and since crews will be burying the powerlines, many homeowner yards will be affected. Hillsboro City Commission President Levi Reese told R&J News that these underground power lines will be a benefit to the people of Hillsboro. 

Reese says the city will also be holding two open houses to explain how their yards may be impacted by the project. 

Resse also gave a rough timeline of the project, which will see phase one kick off next spring. 

Again, Open Houses will be held at 9 AM on Saturday, November 14 and at 7 PM on Wednesday, November 18 at the Hillsboro Community Center.
