Village of New Berlin to hold meeting on particles in water
NEW BERLIN – After receiving multiple complaints of particles clogging appliances and appearing in drinking water, Village of New Berlin officials reached out to the engineering company that maintains the village's water system and has scheduled a question and answer session for concerned citizens.
While village officials maintain New Berlin's water is safe to drink and that a filter would assist residents with any particle issues, residents of a trailer park in the village have requested officials to work faster to resolve the issue.
In response, the Village of New Berlin Board of Trustees scheduled an informational seminar at 10 a.m. on January 25 in the Village Hall with engineers from Delaware Engineering present to answer questions from concerned citizens.
According to Village of New Berlin Trustee Carol Riley, a possible solution to the problem would be to install a fire hydrant on the trailer park's property and flush the lines.
Riley said the landlord of the trailer park's property would be responsible for the cost of the fire hydrant if he wanted one installed because it would be located on his property.
She said further discussion as to why particles are in the village's water will occur in the January 25 meeting.
Residents of the village who have been impacted by the water particles reached out to officials during a board meeting last July, stating the water issues have been ongoing for years without a solution.
One of the residents Richard Potter, spoke at the meeting in July and said, "You are not satisfying the needs of our community."
According to Potter, individuals are paying for village water but are also expected to pay for and clean additional filters to use it.
The village’s head water operator Josh Watson previously spoke on resident's water quality concerns and said, “This is an issue I’ve lost sleep over for several months.”
According to Watson, while the water is safe to drink, the water particles can be an inconvenience, especially for individuals with older lines, but the village is working towards resolving the issue.
