Oxford Elementary students made a spook-tacular visit to the City Office and Oxford Library, dressed head-to-toe in their Halloween costumes for a treat! From superheroes to spooky characters, the turnout was fantastic, with plenty of creativity and Halloween spirit on display! 🎃👻

Not all squirrels are aerial acrobats, but the ones in town sure think they are! While most prefer to zip along the electric lines like they’re on a high-voltage roller coaster, sometimes they miscalculate and cause a power outage. Our utility crew is always on standby, ready to rescue us from our dark, squirrel-induced dilemmas.

Just a heads up: it’s a busy season as squirrels stockpile snacks for winter, so if you see a furry little daredevil using the power lines as their personal highway, don’t be surprised!

If the lights go out during office hours, call us at 620-455-2223. After hours, please call 911—just make sure to specify that it’s a nonemergency outage and not a squirrel-related heist!

Stay powered up and keep an eye out for those furry aerialists!

Earlier this year the City of Oxford by direction of The State of Kansas sent out surveys to all the residents that have water service lines with the City of Oxford.  To stay in compliance with KDHE guidelines we are now sending out brochures based off the answers we recieved on those surveys.  If you recieve one of these brouchures they are just a information pamphlet and it DOES NOT mean that you have Lead exposure in your water.  The City of Oxford does do testing for lead and we have NEVER had a test come back positive for Lead.
