Water Filtration Planned For Muddy Village Taps
Residents ask about muddy tap water and duration of the issue. H E Chatham, village chairman, explains the system lacked a filter when built two years ago. Windrem Creek supply could be used if the river floods, but recent heavy rains carried silt that won’t settle easily. Efforts are underway to create a filtered pool for drinking water until improvements are made.
