Flood damage repair prompts boil water advisory for some homes and businesses in St. Andrews

City water officials issued a boil water advisory for a portion of Kay Street in St. Andrews while a repair is made on a flood-damaged 24 inch water line.

Residents and businesses on Kay Street between St. Andrews Road and Sandy Spring Court should vigorously boil any water used for drinking, food prep or making ice for at least 60 seconds before use.

Anyone near the advisory area who experiences a drop or loss of water pressure should follow the same advice to reduce the risk of using contaminated water.
