Overview
- A high-pressure water main ruptured on Quick Road west of North Holly Road, prompting the village to shut off service for homes nearest the break and causing lower-than-normal pressure for nearby customers.
- Village of Holly officials issued a boil water advisory and said the advisory will remain in place until required water-quality tests show the water is safe to drink.
- The Village Department of Public Works is conducting on-site repairs to the damaged main and will notify residents through the village website, social media and local news when the advisory is lifted.
- Officials advised bringing tap water to a rolling boil for at least one minute before using it for drinking, cooking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes or giving to pets and said bottled water is an alternative; unboiled tap water may be used for bathing and laundry but should not be swallowed.
- Local reporting noted a separate Marion Drive break earlier this month, highlighting repeated localized disruptions and signaling potential vulnerabilities in the village water infrastructure that officials will need to address.
