City leaders reviewed seven boil-water advisories tied to recent water-line work and $14.5 million in infrastructure projects, and said they will pursue contingency plans, parts sourcing and better prioritization of replacement needs.

Utility staff described causes and responses to recent pipe breaks and pressure drops, explained when boil‑water or public notices are required, and council discussed creating an advisory board to give outside‑city utility customers formal representation.

Council heard extended discussion of recent pipe breaks, likely causes (ground movement, materials), regulatory advisory thresholds (including a 20 PSI guideline), contractor selection timeline, and a proposed utilities advisory board to represent customers outside city limits; staff reported system improvements and EPA‑compliant testing.
