This afternoon a utility contractor damaged a 12inch water main at the intersection of Ernest E Sims & S Cummings Ave. This has resulted in some homes losing water pressure in the impacted areas. The damaged area has been isolated and city staff are onsite working to repair the line and restore service as soon as possible. If you live in the impacted areas please heed the "Boiled Water Notification" until further notified here and City social media links.
