Power Outage Paralyzes Carroll County Government Office in Westminster, Commissioners Meeting Goes OnSource: Google Street View

Westminster, MD – There's a snag today at the Carroll County Government office located on North Center St., where operations have hit a wall due to a power outage. According to Carroll County Government, the lights went out and they're scrambling with the folks from BGE to flip 'em back on, but there's no word yet on when normalcy will return.

What's not grinding to a halt is the Board of County Commissioners Open Session which, against all odds kicked off without a hitch at 9 a.m., although you won't catch it live-streamed or broadcasted due to the blackout snafu, they're keeping a video record of the meeting for posterity.

If you had plans to drop by the county office building today calling ahead at 410-386-2400 might be your smartest move, unless you fancy bumping around in the dark.
