The power at La Plamera Mall has been restored after work crews from AEP replaced old equipment throughout the building.
"La Palmera power has been restored following scheduled overnight maintenance performed by AEP Texas. During the work, AEP discovered some older infrastructure that needed to be replaced. The work required additional time to complete and therefore forced the mall to delay opening until 11:30 a.m. this morning," stated officials via Facebook.
According to La Palmera's social media post, they are now in the process of confirming the power situation with each individual store and restaurant.
"Guests should check with individual restaurants and retailers for hours," said mall managers.
