"While we are flushing you may possibly experience lower pressure than normal and could have a tint in the water. If you use any water in your home during the posted flush times you may draw this water into your plumbing system. Toilets and hot water heaters have tanks that can keep this water around long after we are done. If you continue to have discoloration or cloudy water after the posted flush has ended, please let the cold water tap in your kitchen run for approximately 3-5 minutes. If the cold water in the kitchen is clear and the hot water and toilets still have a tint, they may require a brief flush.

The Mayor’s Office had a great time participating in Career Day at Central Middle School!
The mayor and the PIO enjoyed meeting so many bright, curious students who asked thoughtful, intelligent questions about how city government works and what it means to serve our community.
Central truly has some amazing youth, and spending time with them today was a reminder of how bright our city’s future is. 🌟
Thank you to CIS for the invitation! We’re always grateful for the chance to connect with our next generation of leaders! 👏💛
