Shoppers can return to Town Center Mall in Cobb County today as the mall reopens at 11 a.m. The closure was due to a power shutoff by Georgia Power over unpaid bills.
What’s Happening: Due to significant overdue payments, Georgia Power disconnected the mall’s electricity. The company mentioned prolonged efforts with the mall’s management to find solutions and prevent this outcome, but the persistent delinquencies resulted in the power shutoff.
Who Made it Happen: Georgia Power made the decision to cut off electricity after extended non-payment. According to news reports, the mall is owned by Kohan Retail Investment Group, which purchased the property in 2023. Kohan Retail has faced similar issues at other properties, including power shutoffs due to unpaid bills.
Why It Matters: The unexpected shutdown affected both businesses and patrons. In response, local authorities, such as Cobb County’s police and fire departments, implemented measures to maintain the property’s safety and security.
What’s Next: As the mall reopens, shoppers can resume their visits starting at 11 a.m. today. It’s advisable to check with individual stores for their operating hours, as some may vary during the initial reopening phase.
