💦 New Reservoir Switch Over - TUESDAY, August 11, 2026
🦺 The Town will be switching over to the NEW Reservoir on Tuesday, August 11th. We anticipate customers will experience fluctuations in their water pressure on Tuesday, and potentially on Wednesday and Thursday as well.

💦 Residents in the Crestview Development will have reduced water pressure, as we had explained at the beginning of the Project. After the switch-over, Crestview will finally be at a normal pressure, but it may be lower than you are accustomed to.

💦 For all Boonsboro Town customers, the water will be safe to drink, should appear normal (not cloudy), and there should be no service interruptions. The only thing you should notice is a fluctuating pressure.
