A boil water notice has been issued for certain addresses in southwest San Marcos, according to the City of San Marcos.
The city said a major water main break occurred and caused system pressures to drop below acceptable levels in certain areas on Monday. The city has issued a boil water notice for all addresses in the following streets: Longcope Loop, Philo Street, Turkey Hollow Circle, Reimer Avenue, James Street, Dees Street, Suttles Avenue, Laurel Hill Road, Willow Creek Circle, Rolling Oaks, Cedar Park, Corrie Court, Oak Haven, Mountain Drive, Stagecoach, Mountainview Drive, Missy Lane, Snyder Hill, Colleen Court, Willow Ridge and Ridge Crest.
The city said water customers in these areas may want to boil their water prior to consumption after service is restored as a precaution. The boil water notice is a precautionary measure and doesn’t necessarily mean that water is contaminated, the city stated, adding that there is only a possibility of contamination due to a lack of pressure in the main lines for an extended period.
