Flood Cleanup Assistance

ATTENTION PLAINVIEW RESIDENTS:

With the widespread flooding and damages that have been experienced in many of your homes we are extending hours on the disposal of flood debris Monday through Friday this week (March 18-22) from 9 AM to 4 PM and open on Saturday, March 23, 10 AM to 1 PM. If you have flood debris do not put them in the trash totes as they are for normal trash and you will be charged accordingly. Either leave the flood damaged items on the curb and call the City to pick up the debris or you may haul to the transfer station yourself. Please weigh the items at the scales at Schaefer Grain and have them mark it as flood items and you may dump this week for no charge. It is imperative that you clearly separate flood damaged items from normal trash. If there are any special needs please call the City at 582-4928 and make arrangements. We are here to help in any way we can.

Council Meeting Time Change

In accordance with Ordinance #947 passed and approved at the January 8th meeting of the City Council, all regular meetings of the City Council will now be held the 2nd Tuesday of the month at 6:30 P.M. Meetings will still be held at the Community Building in downtown Plainview. 

Arts Council Schedule 2018-2019

The 2018-2019 schedule of the Plainview Arts Council has been released. A listing of events and contacts for more information is included below. 

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.
