Questions about water main breaks or water main flushing?
If you see water bubbling to the ground surface, a water main break may have occurred. Please call either the utility department (763-493-8185) or operations and maintenance (763-493-8007). The City will investigate the problem and repair it if it is on the City system. If the leak is not on the City system, it is the property owner’s responsibility to make necessary repairs. Water mains are flushed in the spring. You may want to avoid doing laundry during this time, as the water may have some discoloration. It is recommended to not use discolored water for drinking or cooking purposes. You will be notified when water mains are going to be flushed.
