Hydrant Flushing Program, April 28 - May 7

The Village's annual Hydrant Flushing Program begins Monday, April 28, at 12:01 a.m. and continues 24 hours a day for approximately 10 days. There will be no hydrant flushing on Saturday or Sunday. If necessary, hydrant flushing may be extended until May 8.

Various neighborhoods in the Village will be affected on different days by hydrant flushing operations.

Monday, April 28: area south of Oakton Street to Central Road

Wednesday, April 30: area north of Oakton Street to Palatine Road and in the area south of Central Road to the southern border of the Village
