REPORTING A WATER LEAK OR MAIN BREAK...

Please report water leaks to City Hall at 815-838-0549 or emergency after hours call WESCOM at 815-838-2131, or create a Service Request by clicking the link on the home page.

Also, due to pressure fluctuations in the system, you may experience some discolored water. The sediment in the mains causes this to occur. In the early spring, the mains will be flushed to remove the accumulated sediment. We appreciate your patience and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. It will take a few hours for the system to settle. Please contact the Water Dept. if the problem persists for more than a day.

WATERMAIN FLUSHING

The Water Department will begin flushing water mains on April 1, 2009. This is done to clear the lines of sediment build-up. Notices will be posted at the entrances of the areas where we will be flushing. We apologize for any inconvenience during this process.
