Temporary Water Outage & Boil Water Notice – Highland Drive Area

Residents in the Highland Drive area shown on the map below will experience a temporary water outage on Thursday, November 12, 2026, while Civic Works crews replace a booster pump.

Water outage: Beginning at 8 a.m. until work is complete. Water service is expected to be restored by 3 p.m.

Boil Water Notice: Once water service is restored, a Boil Water Notice will be in effect for the affected properties only. Residents should bring tap water to a rolling boil for at least one minute before using it for drinking or preparing food.

The Boil Water Notice will remain in place until two consecutive days of bacteriological sampling results come back clear. Affected residents will be notified when the notice is lifted.

Affected properties were notified by hand-delivered letter on Monday, November 9. A second letter will be delivered to properties once the Boil Water Notice is rescinded.

Only properties within the highlighted area on the map below are affected by the water outage and Boil Water Notice.
