    Our crew repaired a water main on East Lane today, June 10th, and a boil water alert has been issued for a specific area. Those directly affected by the boil water alert have been notified via hand delivered notification. If you have not received a hand delivered notification, you are NOT affected by the boil water alert. Surrounding areas may notice a slight discoloration in their water when the work is complete. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience as we work to maintain our infrastructure.
