BOIL WATER NOTICE IN EFFECT

Saturday, december 3, 2022

The City of Fort Myers has issued a citywide precautionary boil water notice as a result of a water main break that occurred in the Edison Avenue and Rockfill Road area. Our crews are working to correct the break until service is fully restored. Please excuse the inconvenience. The cause of the water main break is still unknown. Several sections of the city are experiencing low water pressure. Please continue to monitor this page for updates.

AS A PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE, WE ADVISE BOILING OF WATER CONSUMED FOR DRINKING, COOKING, MAKING ICE, BRUSHING TEETH OR WASHING DISHES. A ROLLING BOIL OF ONE MINUTE IS SUFFICIENT.

As an alternative, bottled water may be used.

THE CITY WILL CONTINUE TO TEST THE WATER AND WILL NOTIFY THE COMMUNITY AS SOON AS THE NOTICE IS RESCINDED.
