Due to a contractor-caused break to a water main serving several streets on the west end, there was a temporary loss in pressure on Thursday, April 21 at approximately 9 a.m. Water service was restored by 1 p.m. Areas affected are Sandy Lane, Coronado Place, Kacy Court, Reid Street, North Wells Street, North San Souci Street and North Vestavia Lane, as well at businesses at 17900, 18100, 18400, 18436 and 19102 Panama City Beach Parkway.
If you are at the address indicated, you may experience discolored water for approximately 24 hours after your water service has been restored.
As a precaution, we advise that all water used for drinking, cooking, making ice, brushing teeth, or washing of dishes be boiled. A rolling boil of one minute is sufficient. As an alternative, bottled water may be used.
This Precautionary Boil Water Notice will remain in effect until the water main repair is completed and a bacteriological survey shows that the water is safe to drink. The City will issue a rescission lifting this notice at that time and you will be notified by the news media, our City Facebook page, and website. You can monitor the City’s website at www.pcbfl.gov for recission status.
