Special thanks to Councilperson Didas for coordinating this event!
HO HO HO!

The Boil Water Notice issued to customers in portions of the towns of Clarkson and Sweden, Monroe County on November 27, 2020 has been lifted. All laboratory test results collected during the Boil Water Advisory verify that the water quality meets federal and state drinking water quality standards.

We are pleased to announce that it is no longer necessary to boil your water before drinking it.

We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

I wanted to share that Supervisor Filipowicz received an update from the MCWA just minutes ago. Our two water samples have passed and this info will be going to the Monroe County Department of Health for further review. We’re getting closer!

My thanks to you all for your continued patience.

Many have been asking how long will those in impacted areas need to boil their water. Supervisor Christa Filipowicz just spoke with MCWA and they say 36-48 hours, however depending on their sampling results, it could be longer.
They are currently sampling water at approved locations in the area. Lifting the notice requires two sets of passing health samples which are taken 18-24 hours apart. Once passing samples are received they will be submitted to the Health Department requesting authorization to lift the boil water advisory.
Results from the first set should be ready this afternoon. At that time MCWA will be out to take the second set of samples. We will continue to provide updates as we receive them.

Last night there was a water main break on Lake Road in Clarkson. Supervisor Filipowicz was informed that the Monroe County Water Authority notified an number of residents in Clarkson that they should boil water as a precaution. Out of an abundance of caution they have now just expanded the advisory to include additional areas. See info

We anticipate possible openings on the support boards for the town of Clarkson. This could include Planning, Zoning, Conservation, Architectural Review and Assessment Review. If interested please email your resume and letter of interest to Supervisor Christa Filipowicz at [email protected].

The Town Hall will close at noon on Wednesday, November 25 for the Thanksgiving Holiday.

Glad we are finally able to offer this after the original date was cancelled due to COVID. Note it is by reservation only– call early we are filling up fast!
