FPB Crews are restoring electric service as quickly as possible. Crews have began replacing multiple broken poles in the service area. Some repairs will take several hours and may not be completed until  7:00am to 9:00am tomorrow morning. 

Areas still effected include Springhill, Tierra Linda, Cavern Drive, and Cystal Drive areas.  

Crews are also making repairs scattered throughout the service area. If you have an outage not on this list and have not reported it, please report to (502) 352-4372. We appreciate your patience as crews continue to work into the night.  

FPB to livestream FCHS and WHHS graduation ceremonies

The Frankfort Plant Board will livestream the Franklin County Schools' graduation ceremonies taking place at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington tomorrow on Facebook Live. 

For years, the local high schools have held graduation here in Frankfort at the civic center, but have had to move the ceremonies out of town after the civic center was demolished. In case out of town travel is difficult for some, FPB feels it is important to make the ceremonies accessible to folks who aren't able to make it there. 

FPB's Facebook page will live stream the Franklin County High School graduation ceremony tomorrow at 4:30 p.m.

FPB's Facebook page will live stream the Western Hills High School graduation ceremony tomorrow at 7:30 p.m.
