Hydrant Painting Taking Place
This week, the Village’s contractor began painting hydrants in the central part of the community. As part of this process, the contractor sandblasts the hydrant to remove old, worn paint and refinishes it with a new protective coating to prevent rust and damage and ensure the hydrant can operate as intended.
