Water Restrictions Notice

The Village has recently discovered and repaired two water leaks in the system. However, we are aware that at least one more leak remains. We ask all residents to please keep an eye out and report any signs of water leakage.

In response to ongoing concerns, we have made the decision to allow limited watering of newly planted gardens and flowers. We kindly ask that you use water sparingly and reduce usage wherever possible.

Looking ahead, we will need your cooperation next month as the Village begins the process of filling the new water tower. During this time, our system will be under additional strain, as it will need to support both the existing and the new tanks. This will require a community-wide effort to conserve water and help manage demand.

Let’s work together to get through this. Thank you for your continued support and understanding.

Notice: Splash Park Delayed Opening

We’re sorry to disappoint all the water lovers and little adventurers out there!

Due to an ongoing water leak, the splash park’s opening will be delayed this year. We understand how much everyone looks forward to it, and we’re working hard to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

We’ll keep you updated and let you know as soon as we have a reopening date.

Thanks for your patience,

Jerry
