Residents are being asked to boil water for drinking, cooking and ice-making to ensure all harmful bacteria and microbes have been destroyed.

The city says water should be brought to a vigorous boil and then boiled for two minutes.

Once the boil water notice is no longer in effect, the public water system will notify customers.
