Flow Testing  & Hydrant Flushing

Monday, October 5, 2015 the City will perform flow testing and hydrant flushing beginning at Noon and will continue until Tuesday, October 6th.   The flushing operation may cause discoloration of the water.  This is normal.  The flushing  operation will continue until the mains are clear, which may take a few days.  We recommend that if at all possible, residents refrain from washing white clothes until the water is again clear.  If your industry is affected by the water flushing, please notify the DPW at 543-8858 so that we can notify you of the flushing process in advance. Thank you for your patience during this process.
