💧 Water Service Update 💧

Water service should now be fully restored.

As a precautionary measure, a Boil Water Advisory will remain in effect until further notice. Water samples will be collected and submitted for testing tomorrow. We anticipate the advisory being lifted by Wednesday, pending satisfactory test results.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this interruption may have caused and greatly appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding while we worked to restore service.

We are aware of the current water outage. We are currently working on it and will update everyone when it's restored. Sorry for the inconvenience this might have caused.

Residents will soon receive another Lead and Copper Survey in the mail. We ask that you please take a few minutes to complete the survey and return it as soon as possible if you have not already.

Your response is important and helps us collect the information needed to meet required drinking water regulations and ensure our community’s water system remains in compliance.

Thank you for your time and cooperation!
