The water crew is going to temporarily shut off the water on the south side of town to complete the tie-in of the new water line. All of the towers in town are full and will provide plenty of water while they perform this operation. This is not anticipated to take very long at all.

If you have a water meter freeze up, please notify City Hall and we will have a crew come and thaw it so there isn't any damage to the meter or antennae cable. We will also put in some insulation to prevent it from freezing again. City Hall can be reached at 580-327-1340.

The indoor portion of the Cory Washburn Family Memorial Pool groundbreaking will be in the Alva High School Auditorium.
