Waterline Rerouting Now Being Considered
City engineers consider rerouting seven to eight hundred feet of underground waterline along FM Road 391 from Norwood Lane to Hearne city limits after June 14 council action to widen an 800 foot road section. A temporary line would be used during relocation, with plans to move the permanent line to the opposite side to maintain service. Efforts aim to minimize time customers rely on temporary supply.
