The Municipal Services Department is aiming to provide residents improved information regarding the water main breaks that occurred in 2012. Last year the Village experienced 66 water main breaks, spread throughout the entire community.
The Village also experienced a combination of one of the hottest and driest summers on record, along with the largest capital improvement project that has ever been undertaken with the reverse osmosis plant reconstruction.
While it is not possible to pinpoint the cause of most water main breaks, this report is designed to to help shed some light on the locations and circumstances pertaining to the water main breaks of 2012.
