Brunswick defers easing of outside water connections ban
The Brunswick mayor and council again defer any loosening of limits on out-of-town water connections. The plan to allow up to 20 connections near main lines was to be lifted Feb 1, but a low water reserve and near normal seasonal supply prompt continued restrictions. Officials cite frozen ground and check lines for leaks as reasons to maintain the ban.
