Temporary Water Discoloration

Community Update

๐Ÿ’ง๐Ÿ‘ท‍โ™‚๏ธ Temporary Water Discoloration ๐Ÿ‘ท‍โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ’ง

The City of Oxford would like to let residents know that Mayer Specialty Services recently performed maintenance on several sewer lines in town. As part of their work, they needed to fill equipment from a nearby fire hydrant.

This process can cause a temporary brown tint in the water for some residents. The discoloration is due to the high water pressure stirring up natural sediment in the water lines. While it may look unsightly, the water is safe to use and should clear within a few hours.

We appreciate your understanding and patience as we complete these important maintenance projects for our community.
