Red River Water Authority officials announced at Tuesday night’s Howardwick City Council meeting that ALL city residents need to continue to boil water before consuming it.
Last week, local Red River officials and the city announced the boil water notice had been lifted for all areas except Carroll Creek Acres. Red River officials now say that announcement was premature. The boil water notice has not been lifted and will remain in place until water pressure issues are resolved.
The water authority outlined its plans last night for addressing the water pressure issues, including laying a new four-inch pipe to the Carroll Creek Acres section. Those improvements are expected to get underway as soon as materials can be delivered next week, and Red River officials say the project should be completed within a month.
In the meantime, bottled water is still available for Howardwick residents at City Hall.
