May 19
The City will be conducting regular maintenance of fire hydrants on Park Point on May 19. The goals are to test the functionality of the hydrants and keep water moving through the system. Residents may notice water in the streets, in the curb, and in the boulevard while the flushing is occurring. Residents may experience some slight changes in water pressure during this process but there should be no loss of water service.
