PUBLIC NOTICE
WATER TOWER CLEANING – WEDNESDAY
Residents are advised that the City’s water tower will be taken completely offline, drained, and cleaned on Wednesday as part of routine maintenance of the public water system.
While the tower is out of service, the City’s water system will remain operational. However, because the system will be operating without the water tower, residents may notice some temporary changes in normal water service.
WHAT RESIDENTS SHOULD KNOW
• Water service will remain available. The water tower being offline does not mean the entire water system will be shut down.
• Water pressure may fluctuate. Residents may notice higher or lower pressure than they normally experience while the tower is offline.
• Temporary discoloration may occur. Changes in normal water flow can stir up naturally occurring sediment in the water mains.
• If your water is discolored, run a cold-water faucet for several minutes until the water clears. Avoid doing laundry, especially light-colored laundry, until the water is clear.
Once the cleaning is completed, the tower will be refilled and returned to normal service.
Routine cleaning and inspection of the water tower are important parts of maintaining the community’s drinking water infrastructure and providing safe, reliable water service to residents.
We appreciate your patience and understanding while this important maintenance is completed.
Thank you for your cooperation.
