Although no updates were received from Cochran Engineering on Bloomsdale’s water and sewer system replacement project, the water system did come up during the 35-minute March 9 board of aldermen meeting.
Water superintendent John Lurk pointed out early in the meeting that during the span of single-digit and below-zero temperatures in late February, the city did not have a single city water main break. Other entities throughout the county were hit hard by some main breaks during the frigid spell.
“I just wanted to let you know there hasn’t been a main waterline break,” Lurk said.
