Summary
Officials reported two water-main breaks during the week: one on the access road outside City Hall and one on 89th Street. City staff warned more breaks could occur as temperatures warm.
Mayor Frank Finnegan told the council that Public Works had "2 water main breaks to deal with this week," noting the unusual weather and thawing conditions affecting infrastructure.
Alderman Dolan, chair of the Water and Sewer Committee, provided additional detail: there were two breaks this week, "one on the access road outside of City Hall and one on 89th St." The committee did not present a repair timeline at the meeting; the transcript indicates ongoing monitoring and potential for additional breaks as temperatures change.
