The 3rd St water main repair is complete and pressurized. Please run your outside spigots for approximately 15-20 minutes to clear air from water lines. Continue to boil any water used for drinking or cooking until further notice.

❗️❗️UPDATE❗️❗️- The boil order is MANDATORY until further notice.

Due to the size & nature of the main break on 3rd St. we are going to have to shut off water completely to the 1300-1400 blocks of 3rd St. to make the repair.
When the water comes back on, please run an outside spigot for 10-20minutes to clear your lines.
We are issuing a precautionary boil order for this area as well for a minimum of 24hrs or until lab test results are in. This is for any water used for drinking, cooking, or brushing your teeth. We apologize for this inconvenience.
