The Charlotte County Utilities Department has declared a precautionary boil water notice for some customers in parts of Rotonda and the west county area due to repairs made to a water line.

The affected customers will remain under a precautionary boil water notice until further notice.

Due to the repairs to the water supply system, the department requests that all customers in the affected areas listed boil water intended for drinking or cooking until further notice.

The Utilities Department will notify the affected customers with a rescission notice as soon as the water quality is confirmed to be at safe consumption levels. As an alternative, bottled water could be used.
