6:15pm Update – From City Councilman Rick Phelps  – “BANGS RESIDENTS: The boil water notice is in effect UNTIL—(AT MINIMUM) Monday or Tuesday. What this means is—ANY WATER used for drinking or cooking needs to be boiled. If you have a refrigerator with an icemaker, you should empty out the ice from that unit and disconnect the icemaker. It is safe to shower and bathe. Again, please make sure you are boiling ANY WATER for drinking or cooking consumption and empty out your ice machines (if you have one as part of your refrigerator unit) and disconnect the icemaker. Once the notice is lifted, I will notify you through my FB page, as well as the Brown County Independent page. Again, we apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience today.”
