The Village of
Montgomery Public Works Department crews will be flushing water mains in the
Village and unincorporated Boulder Hill Subdivision during the weeks of April 10,
17, and 24, 2017. This procedure clears sediment from the water
distribution line, helps maintain water quality, and verifies proper operation
of the hydrants.
Residents are encouraged to refrain
from washing laundry when flushing is done in or near their neighborhood as the
temporarily discolored water may cause laundry staining. Residents should also run their cold water
taps first to clean out any sediment that may enter the water lines inside the
homes. Public Works crews will flush
hydrants from approximately 7:00 am to 6:00 pm. daily according to the
following schedule:
Week
of April 10: Areas east of Orchard Road to Hill Avenue
(includes Parkview Estates) and north of Route 30 (Seasons Ridge) up to Ashland
Avenue.
Week
of April 17: In unincorporated Boulder Hill, South of
Route 30 to Circle Drive West and from Route 25 to Douglas Road; within the
Village of Montgomery, Lakewood Creek West, Fairfield Way and Foxmoor.

and from Galena Road to Jericho Road, including: Montgomery Crossings, Lakewood Creek, Lakewood
Creek West, Fairfield Way, Foxmoor, Blackberry Crossing, Blackberry Crossing
West, Huntington Chase, Balmorea, Orchard Prairie North, and Saratoga Springs.
