NOTICE

The Water Department has receiving calls from residents concerning the painting of fire hydrants. The department will be painting hydrants within the next couple of weeks.

While we appreciate the great suggestions of colors and decorations that we have received, the public hydrants must painted safety yellow with the smaller caps painted a color that corresponds to the size of the water main that feeds them. Private hydrants must also be safety yellow with the smaller caps, and the top of the hydrant, painted the color that corresponds to the size of the water main that feeds them as well.

Thanks for everyone's suggestions, and have a great day!
