by Not Signed In | Town News

On Wednesday, September 20 there was a structure fire in Vernon that drew a large response from area fire departments.  Fire apparatus drew a large amount of water from one of the hydrants on Route 142.  This stirred up sediment in the water mains and has resulted in discolored water in several areas throughout Brattleboro.  Residents experiencing discolored water are advised to run the cold water faucet until the water clears.

Bi-annual water main flushing is scheduled to start tomorrow, Friday, September 22.
