Fall is here once again, and with it comes our annual Fall water main flushing.
It will start on Monday, October 19th - Friday, October 23rd at 7am daily.


PLEASE WATCH FOR SIGNS IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD. Areas scheduled for flushing will have signs posted at least 24 hours in advance to inform residents.
• During and after flushing, if you encounter discolored water, please open a cold-water tap and let the water run for 5 minutes. If the water does not run clear after 5 minutes, shut the water off, wait 30-45 minutes and repeat. Do not run water constantly for hours, as this is wasteful and ineffective.
• If possible, avoid running hot water taps while the water is discolored. This will help keep sediment from settling in your water heater.
• To avoid staining, do not wash clothes when flushing is occurring in your area, or any time water is discolored.

Any questions regarding water main flushing can be directed to the Village of Monee Public Works Department at 708-534-8306.

Attention Residents:

We are asking residents with the removal of parkway trees that contain landscaping around the tree to please remove this material by Monday, October 19th. This includes bricks, stone, rocks, landscaping borders and fabric. Grinding stumps can be a messy task and this type of debris could cause damage to the blades of the equipment and injury to workers by hazardous flying projectiles when hit by this type of equipment. The Village assumes no liability for any landscaping left in these areas that encounters the equipment and is subsequently destroyed or removed.

Thank you,
The Public Works Department
(708) 534-8306 for further questions.
