The contractor completed fire hydrant replacements and property water main tie-ins north of Hazel Street ahead of schedule, eliminating the need for the previously scheduled water shutdown on Tuesday, August 9! The City thanks the crew for their speedy work, resulting in less water supply disruption to residents and businesses in the project area.
