(Exira, Iowa) – Officials with the City of Exira, today (Monday) said due to an issue with the water main project the following locations in Exira are under a boil advisory until further notice:
• south side of Washington Street from Edgerton to Fairview Streets
• South Cottage from Washington to Water Streets
• South Fairview from Washington to Water Streets
• E Depot from Edgerton to Fairview Streets
The Boil Advisory only affects the areas listed above and does not include Exira-EHK Schools or the Exira Care Center
It is recommended not to drink the water without boiling it first. Bring all water to a boil, let it boil for one minute, and let it cool before using, or use bottled water. Boiled or bottled water should be used for drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, and food preparation until further notice. Boiling kills bacteria and other organisms in the water. The water may be used for bathing and other similar purposes.
