Richmond, MO: Local News

A major waterline leak near Thornton and West Thornton Dr. requires that we reduce system pressure in from the Valley Dr. water tower, and may require letting the water level in the Hill St. water tower to drop as well. All City water users are advised that if their water flow stops or if their water pressure becomes very low, water should be boiled before drinking or using to cook. This will remain in effect until at least Monday evening. For information during business hours – 776-5304. For information outside of business hours 776-5826.
