🚰💦 HYDRANT FLUSHING 💦🚰

Over the next few weeks, the City Crew will be flushing fire hydrants throughout town on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings.

The Crew is currently working on the north side of town and will move to the south side in the next couple of weeks.

💧 What should you expect?
During and shortly after hydrant flushing, you may notice temporary discoloration or a slight brown tint to your water. This is normal and occurs when sediment in the water lines is stirred up during the flushing process.

There may also be a temporary decrease in water pressure or flow while a nearby hydrant is being flushed. Water pressure should return to normal once flushing is complete.

While the discoloration may be unsightly, it does not indicate that the water is unsafe to use. However, you may prefer to avoid using discolored water for cooking, drinking, or laundry until the water has cleared.

If you notice discoloration, simply run your cold water for a few minutes to help clear the line.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as our City Crew completes this important annual maintenance to help keep our water system and fire hydrants functioning properly! 💙
