Village water main break

I've been running back and forth between home and the radio station to put on the latest water main break information and I have totally ignored the blog. Here's the scoop. Yesterday there was a large water main break at the corner of DeSoto Boulevard and Cortez Road. While the POA public works department was working on the break, another break developed nearby.

This is the most recent missive from the POA: "Due to an earlier water main break and subsequent valve damage at DeSoto Blvd. and Cortez Rd., the Property Owners' Association advises residents from Cortez Rd. to Hwy 7 and north and south of DeSoto Blvd., to continue conserving water, especially outdoor use, until further notice."

Aging infrastructure is the probable cause of the break. Earlier this year there was a break in the same line. At least now we are not in an extreme drought. Although the POA is advising conservation, it has not called for a boil order. The water is still deemed safe.

The Coronado Fitness Center closed around 1 today and the plan is to open during regular hours tomorrow. If the breaks are not repaired, the Fitness Center may be closed for another day. Call first to see if it is open before heading out.
