SHARE NOW

Residents near Page and Acorn Streets are advised that an emergency water main replacement is scheduled for July 31, 2025, beginning at 6 AM. The work follows a valve replacement that led to a water main break in the area. Residents can expect a water outage lasting three to four hours. Once service returns, a boil order will be in place for those impacted until water quality testing is complete. Direct notifications have been delivered to affected households, and crews are working swiftly to restore service safely. For ongoing updates, look to the official website or the department’s Facebook page.

“Once water is restored, a boil order will be issued for those that lost water, until sample results are returned. Those directly affected have been personally notified. We do recognize the short term notice and acknowledge that our crews must work as quickly and safely as possible to ensure service is restored.”
