Kalamazoo issues boil water advisory for southwest neighborhood following repairs | WWMT

KALAMAZOO, Mich. — The City of Kalamazoo has issued a precautionary boil water advisory Monday following a water main break for resident's living in the area's southwest side.

Residents living on both sides of Par 4 Road east of Old Colony Road, Par 4 Circle, and 832 Merrie Ln. are affected and may also experience a temporary loss of water pressure, according to the city.

The advisory does not include the northeast and southeast corners of Par 4 Road and Old Colony Road.

The city recommends customers to use bottled water or boil their tap water for two minutes before drinking or other forms of consumption.

As the city conducts testing, sampling results will take place in the next 24 hours. The boil water advisory will be lifted within 72 hours (Nov. 16) if bacteria is not found in the water, city officials said.
