HYDRANT FLUSHING BEGINS TODAY. This is just a reminder ... Hydrant flushing is necessary to ensure the water mains are clean and the water is properly chlorinated. This may cause the water to have a rusty iron look to it in some instances. Residents are asked to run water for a short while to clear out any discolored water, especially before doing laundry. If you have any questions please call City Hall at 815-772-7657.
