UPDATE 1:50 PM: Vista Booster is back online. Water Service has been restored. Fortunately, the valve repair turned out to be simpler than expected, and took much less time than estimated. Thank you for your patience.
Reminder: Patrons who have had their water service interrupted, should open one inside tap slowly to vent any air that may have gotten into their plumbing, and then flush their lines until running water is clear, during first use.
There will be a planned shutdown of the Vista Booster Pump Station today, Wednesday, October 1, 2025 in order to replace the defective foot valve. Due to the location of this valve, the shutdown will begin at 8:00 AM. Water Service ETR (Estimated Restoration Time) will be at 4:00 PM.
Patrons on Vista Loop, Highview, Kingswood, and some on Bonnell, will have water service interrupted until the valve replacement work is completed, and the Vista Booster is brought back up.
Please let your neighbors know about this shutdown as not all Patrons are subscribed to the blog.
