Overview
- Sixty-seven homes near Cuesta Park remained under a boil-water order Monday, and the city does not expect clearance until next weekend.
- Crews isolated the line that serves Drucilla Drive and Carla Court and are super-chlorinating it, then flushing and taking two rounds of samples for State Water Board review.
- Recent tests found low levels of coliform bacteria but no E. coli, which points to possible contamination yet means no confirmed fecal indicator was detected.
- The city says a contractor let cement slurry enter a live main on April 24, and it has filed a claim to recover costs while it evaluates further legal action.
- To ease the strain on families, the city is delivering drinking water and offering hotel lodging, shower access, and $92 per person per day for meals and incidentals.
