Water service has been restored to homes on South Chestnut after a recent water main break. Residents had water access for the weekend, thanks to swift efforts by the local water division. However, everyone in the affected area remains under a boil order until further notice, as safety checks continue. Crews are scheduled to return on Monday, May 5, 2025, to resume repairs on the water main. Officials apologize for the inconvenience and stress the importance of boiling water before use until the order is lifted. Watch for updates on the situation on the City of Kewanee’s Facebook page regarding the repairs and water safety.
