The township is under a water boil advisory. They decided the way to inform people was on the website, through phone if you have a phone on your water account, through a system no one knew existed, or Facebook.

They’re offering a case of water per household for free though!

That announcement was only through Facebook. Great. All gone.

    through phone if you have a phone on your water account

    To be fair, that should cover like 95% of people. Very rare these days to be able to set up a utility WITHOUT a phone number.

      The phone number is not required for the accounts here. Also there’s a lot of people that misses. It only covers one person in our three person household, and only one person in my mother’s five person household. Luckily the person who pays the water here told us. My mother’s husband absolutely would not tell three of the other people in their household until after someone drank the water cause not his job to let people know he says.

          Despite what my mother’s husband thinks, I’ve never been a member of his household. My twin, who was, lives with me now.

          He’d tell my mother, but not his own sons or my twin. (My mother, once she knew, would have told everyone else in the household. Luckily they’ve never had a water boil down there)

          I don’t like him very much.
