You may have seen our crews out around town recently. Hydrant Flushing is underway.

Flushing helps remove sediment from the water mains and ensures hydrants are operating properly.

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

Thanks for your patience as we work our way through the city.

May is National Electrical Safety Month. A good reminder to take a quick look around your home for possible electrical issues🔌

Avoid overloading outlets, and pay attention to things like flickering lights, frequently tripped breakers or outlets that feel warm to the touch. These can all be signs that something isn’t working as it should.

A little attention now can help prevent bigger issues later.

We had a great time at Big Vehicle Day last weekend!

It was wonderful seeing so many families stop by to explore the truck, meet the crew and learn a little more about the equipment we use every day.

From climbing into the driver’s seat to honking the horns and asking great questions, there was no shortage of excitement.

Thank you to everyone who came out and helped make it such a fun community event. We always enjoy opportunities like this to connect with the community we serve.
