Feb. 21 Update
Please use water sparingly. There are still numerous leaks in the water system, and the system hasn’t been able to pump enough water to build pressure in the lines. If you have water pressure, please avoid using dishwashers, clothes washers, etc. as your usage may be impeding other people on the water line.

Late Water Bills
Our water system switched billing providers and we had to manually create each individual water bill. For this reason, and delays with the postal service, several people on the water system have still not received their bill. All of this month’s water bills were mailed out Monday morning, February 8th, from Saline. For these reasons,Continue reading “Late Water Bills”
