Hi all-
the CL switch ( at the lower park) has a battery back-up since telephone is low voltage. The batteries will last for a few hours which is typically enough for most power outages. Anything really lengthy requires a generator to back the switch batteries up. At one point the town had considered using some of the recovery funding for a generator that could be stored at the firehall be the tennis courts and pressed into service when needs to keep the lines hot.
