Boil Water Advisory 5423, 5427, & 5429 Meredith Street (Davis Creek Apartments)
Effective April 3, 2025
On April 3, 2025, an additional leak was experienced in the water service at 5427 Meredith Street after last week’s initial repair. To avoid additional breaks, the entire section of the water service was replaced, and it became necessary to depressurize a section of the main to complete the installation. Affected customers in the area are advised to boil their tap water for a minimum of one minute prior to use for drinking, brushing their teeth, or cooking.
This is a precautionary measure, and all means of flushing and collecting bacteriological samples from the water main before the advisory is lifted will be followed. A news release will follow once the advisory is lifted.
