Work to Begin on Water Tower

Renovation work on the city water tower will begin the week of September 17th and last approximately 1 month. Crews from Suez Utility Services will be draining the tower, cleaning the inside and painting the outside. Residents may experience periods of low water pressure during this time and are encouraged to limit excessive water usage. We thank you for your cooperation and ask that you call the City Offices at 582-4928 with any questions. 

Drinking Water Warning

As an announcement to all City water customers, well #541 (better known as the Bandshell well) was tested twice in the first quarter of 2018 and came back with a concentration over the 10 milligrams per liter (18 milligrams) when tested on June 26, 2018
​
The well was taken offline on December 26, 2017 and will not be put back on the public water system until the nitrates test below the 10 milligram per liter limit. Due to the fact that the well is still considered active this notice is being published.

The plans for the city are to rehabilitate the well in the summer of 2018 to see if that will help and hopefully put the well back on the system.

Nitrates in the drinking water are a serious health concern for infants less than six months old, pregnant women or nursing mothers.  

We will keep you updated on the situation and let you know if and when this well is put back on the drinking water supply. 

Additional information can be obtained on the attachment below or by calling the City Office at 582-4928.
