Attention Ripley water customers: Due to a major water line being accidentally cut, the majority of the city will experience a temporary water outage. Crews are on site and working to restore service as quickly as possible. We expect the outage to last for about the next hour.

We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we resolve this issue.

Attention water customers in the Buena Vista area: Water services will be interrupted beginning at 9:00 a.m. tomorrow and will remain off until sometime after lunch for repairs and the installation of a new fire hydrant. This will affect customers from CR 701 to the Union County Line. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

Attention City of Ripley Residents:

The contracting crews working hard to clean up debris from Winter Storm Fern are preparing to make their final rounds through our city. Most crews are expected to be here for only a few more weeks.

If you have any remaining storm debris that needs to be collected, please get it to the curbside as soon as possible to ensure it is picked up.

For those living along state highways, please note that MDOT will soon begin their own debris pickup in those areas.

Thank you for your cooperation as we work together to restore our community!
