Bethany water improvements
According to Bethany mayor Jonathan Book, work has started on the water tower portion of the water improvements project for the Village of Bethany. Workers have been busy pressure washing and cleaning the outside of the water tower. There is also surface preparation to be done before painting can take place. There is currently welding and grinding being done inside to do repairs to the interior. Bethany had a water main break late last week as a result of the water project. Due to work being done, pressure changed in the water lines causing the main break. As of deadline the boil order was still in effect. Book said that the village hopes to have interior repairs and painting of the tower completed by July 4.
