City praised during storm Westlake, able to share water while other cities under boil advisory

While surrounding communities were working to bring water back, Westlake was sharing from its supply.
Mayor Bob Hardey commended Doug Fleming and his department during a specialcalled City Council meeting Monday for their performance during the ice storm and subsequent water issues.
The meeting was originally scheduled for the Feb. 15, but was postponed because of the severe weather and road conditions.
“Doug’s public works department did a phenomenal job,” Hardey said. “Doug’s crew kept us going even with Jones Street water plant out of service — and Jones Street produces about 700,000 gallons a day.”
The city of Westlake was able to put water out every two hours to the north section of town, send seven 18-wheelers of water to Memorial Hospital in Lake Charles and also help a Women’s Hospital in Houston with its water needs.
