During the construction of a deep injection well, a contractor mistakenly caused a pipeline break. Water is present on the west side of the Water Treatment Plant along SW 4th Avenue. 

Please do the following until further notice: 

• Limit non-essential water use.
• Avoid activities that require high water consumption, such as irrigation or car washing.

We will temporarily utilize an interconnect with Palm Beach County, and free chlorine treatment will begin immediately.

The free chlorine period originally scheduled to begin Monday, January 5, 2026, and end on Saturday, January 24, 2026, will now start immediately to support system reliability during repairs.

We will keep you updated as repairs progress and notify you when normal operations are restored.

During this time, you may notice a slight change in taste or smell to your tap water. If you use a home dialysis machine, own aquarium fish, or manage stores or restaurants with fish and shellfish holding tanks, please seek professional advice on how to remove chlorine from tap water.

Questions? Please call the Utilities Department Customer Service team at (561) 243-7312 Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
