DRINKING WATER WARNING!!!!
Village of Elmwood will be repairing the water tower; high levels of nitrates may be possible. DO NOT GIVE THE WATER TO INFANTS UNDER 6 MONTHS OLD OR USE IT TO MAKE INFANT FORMULA!
Click here to read more about the Drinking Water Warning.
So what is going on up on the water tower?
The tower is slowly turning white.
Hang tight!
This is the other side. We think they are painting it white so it doesn't blend in so much with the sky. Now it looks like a cloud. Joe and I think it should be hot pink. Now that would make a statement. I'm not sure what the statement would be though.
