Water Restrictions
No lawn watering of any kind will be allowed from Monday, June 8, through Friday morning, June 12.
During that time, RCS Construction will be testing and filling the new water tower.
Water pumped during the day will go directly into the new tower.
The old water tower will only be replenished at night, so daytime household water use will temporarily draw down the existing supply.
Upcoming Project Timeline
The new water tower is expected to be fully operational around June 17–18.
Around July 7, the old well pump will be removed and a new pump installed. At the same time, all new electrical equipment will be installed at the well house.
While the pump is offline, no water can be pumped to the tower.
Additional water-use restrictions will be implemented during that pump replacement period.
Demo of the old water tower is scheduled to start around July 20th.
Bottom line: Avoid all lawn watering June 8–12 and be prepared for another period of water restrictions around July 7 while the new well pump is installed.

This is a good time for all homeowners to consider insurance that covers both your water and sewer line. Should a water or sewer line of yours break, it can cost upward of several thousand dollars for repair. There are several companies that provide this type of coverage. One of these is HomeServe. https://www.homeserve.com/
