The Saint Joseph Animal Control and Rescue building will go without electricity for at least a couple of hours today. KCP&L plans to shut off the power at 10 am to work on transformers. They expect the outage to last about two hours. If it continues past one o’clock it will delay the opening of the shelter, which normally operates from one to 6:30 on Wednesdays. When it does reopen, visitors may notice higher-than-normal temperatures and humidity in the building until air conditioning recovers from the outage.
