Work began Tuesday, July 23, on the installation of the automated metering system. MB Construction crews will be in the community replacing the water meters in phases, with them starting on water route 1, which includes an area from Taylor Street to the west branch of the Walnut River and from about Sixth Avenue to Central Avenue (outlined on the map).
Crews will be in pickups with the MB Construction logo and will be wearing either shirts, vests or hats with their logo so the community can easily identify them. The work will be done from approximately 7:30 a.m. to 6 or 6:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday until the project is completed. Each meter replacement should only take a few minutes, during which a house will be without water, and if water is in use, they will knock on your door before beginning their work on your meter. They also will be leaving a door hanger at your house notifying residents that the work has been done.
If you have any questions, please call 321-9100.
