[Tang-residents] Schdeuduled water shut down tomororow

[Michael J Collins]

The water has now been restored
Hi

Because of a water shut down earlier today, it is not uncommon for discolored water once the water has been restored.
Please allow the water run for a minute and it will clear up. As for the toilet, flush a couple of times and this will be back to normal.

I apologize for the inconvenience
