Argyle meeting canceled due to power outage

The town of Argyle canceled its Town Council meeting Monday night due to an ongoing power outage.

The outage began a little after 2 p.m. Monday, and was caused by a construction worker accidentally hitting a power pole with an excavator.

The affected line is located next to the Argyle Post Office. Denton County ESD No. 1 and Argyle police personnel were on-site within minutes, and are still assisting ONCOR with restoring power. The outage affected some traffic lights on Hwy 377 and more than 1,000 customers, including Argyle Town Hall. Power was partially restored around 7:10 p.m., and then was fully restored just before 6 a.m. Tuesday.

Because of the outage at Town Hall, the Town Council special meeting had been canceled.
