πŸŒ™ While You Were Sleeping… πŸŒ™

Last night, our City of Walters Water & Sewer Department worked hard and efficiently to replace a non-operational fire hydrant in our system. Under the supervision of Water & Sewer Supervisor, JD Chasenah, the crew moved safely, effectively, and with great coordination to ensure the water supply interruption was kept to under one hour.

The team chose to complete this work late in the evening to minimize the impact on our residents and businesses. We want to sincerely thank them for their dedication, commitment, and service to our community.

πŸ‘ Hats off to JD, Saul, Levi, Joey, and Larry, the entire Water & Sewer Department! πŸ‘
Your work often goes unseen, but it is always appreciated.

This hydrant replacement is just one of many ongoing improvements the City of Walters is making to upgrade our water system and enhance the quality of life for all who call Walters home.

Thank you, team!
