(Week of August 17-21, 2026)

***BREAKING UPDATE: FRIDAY AUGUST 21st from 9am-2pm DO NOT USE WATER FROM ANY SOURCE (Again!)

Hello Again,

We just received ANOTHER important update from the City of Richmond that their test earlier this week didn’t go well and they need to try again:

——-

FRIDAY AUGUST 21st from 9am-2pm - DO NOT USE WATER FROM ANY SOURCE

Good morning Miller Road (West)/Wellington Crescent (North) residents,*

We had the pressure test done on Tuesday but there were a couple of minor issues. We have to retest on Friday August 21st.

Again, this test will be done in the morning at 9am. This test is only in the back alley that we are currently working on.

Please do not use water from any source from 9am to 2pm.

Again, we are sorry for any inconvenience.

Thanks again.

Steve Arrigo
