University Park, IL – Residents in parts of University Park are under a boil order following a water main repair, local officials announced Monday afternoon. The affected area includes Monterey Court 1021 and 1023, and Sierra Court 1025 through 1041, according to the Village of University Park.
According to the village’s notice, the order was issued at 1:15 p.m. Monday, October 6, and impacts roughly 20 customers in the neighborhood. The advisory follows a main break repair that affected about 900 feet of water line.
Officials are advising all affected residents to boil water for at least five minutes before using it for drinking, cooking, brushing teeth, or washing food until further notice. The University Park Water Supply has notified both the Elgin Regional Office and the County Health Department of the localized advisory.
