Residents and business along Colorado Avenue between San Pedro Street and Campo Street, and Campo Street between Texas Avenue and Arizona Avenue will experience a water outage Thursday, July 10, between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. for a new water main connection. Adjacent areas also may be affected by the outage.
City crews will post door hanger notices on buildings impacted by the outage a minimum of 24 hours in advance.
Once service is restored, residents could notice discolored water due to mineral deposits. Although the water is safe to drink, City officials recommend waiting to wash laundry until after the water becomes clear.
If the discoloration does not disappear within 24 hours, customers should flush all faucets for five minutes. If the discoloration remains, call the City at 526-0500 for assistance.
