Water shutdown in Cape Coral neighborhood - NBC2 News

CAPE CORAL,Fla. — People in a neighborhood will be without water Tuesday starting at 9 a.m.

The water shutdown will take place just north of Gleason Parkway, where it intersects with Santa Barbara Boulevard, as well as a small section just east of Gleason.

The city sent out emails, phone calls and texts warning you about the outage while it works on the water main.

It is expected to last somewhere between 4 to 8 hours.

After the water is restored, residents will have to boil the water for one minute or use bottled water.

This will apply to making ice, washing dishes cooking and brushing your teeth.
