Village Voice: Fire hydrant flushing July 27-31

Village Voice
In the coming weeks, you may see Village Water and Street Department crews working on fire hydrants throughout the village.

A sign that this work is going on may be water running down the street. If you happen to encounter the running water, please steer clear of the stream, regardless if you are in a car, on a bike or on foot.

Flushing the water hydrant system is a routine maintenance activity.

Over time, sediment deposits may accumulate in the complex water system. These deposits are naturally occurring, and are a result of the minerals in water reacting with the inside of the water pipes.
