Precautionary Boil Order Issued for Part of Belton

4:51 p.m.
A precautionary boil water notice has been issued for a neighborhood in Belton located west of the southbound I-35 frontage road and north of E. 6th Avenue (see map).
The notice is necessary because the repair of a ruptured water main required temporarily shutting off the flow of water in the area.
Temporarily boiling water for drinking, cooking or making ice is recommended in this area to ensure that potential harmful bacteria and microbes are destroyed. The water should be brought to a vigorous, rolling boil and boiled for two minutes. In lieu of boiling, purchase bottled water or obtain water from some other suitable source.
Instructions to discontinue boiling will be issued in the same manner as this notice and/or on the City’s website at www.beltontexas.gov. If you have questions concerning this matter, please contact City of Belton Public Works Department at (254) 933-5823.
Residents in the area who have signed up for CodeRed notifications received automated messages about the order.
