The Geneva Public Works Department received kudos from several residents via Facebook for their quick response to an Aug. 21 power outage, which started after a contractor's truck crane inadvertently took out power lines and damaged electric poles. The outage impacted 593 customers in the Pepper Valley subdivision and the surrounding area.

This lost female dog (no chip or tags) was located Aug. 30 on Brentwood Place on the City's east side.

Metra announced the outbound platform (Platform No. 2) at the Geneva train station will be closed for rehabilitation starting Monday, Oct. 9 through the end of 2024.
