Water Valve Replacement

9/26/2025

On Monday, September 29, the City of Andrew will be replacing a water valve. This work will affect the following areas:

  • Willow Street, north of Emmett
  • Franklin Street, north of Emmett
  • Marion Street, north of Van Buren

During this time, residents in these areas may notice:

  • A drop in water pressure
  • Cloudy or discolored water

What to do if water is cloudy or discolored:

  • Do not run your hot water (this helps prevent sediment from entering your hot water heater).
  • Run cold water from your bathtub faucet until it clears. The bathtub faucet is best since it does not have a screen that can clog.

Be prepared:

  • Consider filling jugs of water for drinking.
  • Fill a few buckets of water for flushing toilets.
  • If a boil order becomes necessary, residents in the affected area will be notified immediately.

The project is expected to be completed on Monday, September 29. Updates will be posted on the City of Andrew website. Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
