Update
Repairs have been made and the water has now been restored to the Building.

Please be aware, It is not unusual after a water shut down to have discolored brown water or a milky like color (air in the line) from the hot water. This is normal and running the tap water for 10 minutes or until it becomes clear is the solution.

Thank you for your patience

Michael
