Aug 2017 Water News – REPLACING VALVES
Aug – Contractor WW Gay has been selected to replace 2 roadside water line gate valves ASAP
What are gate valves? They allow us to shut off water block by block, so if one street has an issue, remaining homes can still have water service. It will benefit everyone of us, when all valves are working again.
Where are they? There are 16 gate valves throuout the subdivision. The 2 needing to be replaced are at 207 and 212 PP Drive.
Disruption? The valves are approx. 6′ underground next to the road. Digging deep close to the road will require work crews to be in the road. Possibly require noisy water pumps. Will temporarily disrupt water service at times. Project may only take a few days to complete, but the weather has been unpredictable lately.
You May Remember… We attempted to replace these valves 2 years ago, but were unable to complete due to weather and road stability. Then with the storm last year, we had to push it back again.
