IMPORTANT NOTICES FROM TODAY

[gpatt0n]

BOIL WATER ORDER - NO SCHOOL TUESDAY

 

While there was much mayhem, more than a few questionable bridges and worrisome dams ... the most important two notices from today were simply:

 

Boil your water before using it for consumption for humans and animals. You can go ahead and wash hands (not in boiling water) and even bath in the water but don't drink it for coffee or tea from the tap as there have been issues for the boil water order to be issued at 7:15 p.m. today.

 

And of course, it is absolutely official there is no school in Paulding County on Tuesday.

ADDENDUM FROM HIRAM:

 

Hiram City reports that the city of Hiram is without power. This is a concern for city of Hiram residences that use well water. The well pumps will be out due to the power. They will need to be reminded to boil their water while using county water.-- Corporal Brandon Gurley

 

ADDENDUM FROM CITY OF ACWORTH:

The City of Acworth is experiencing severe traffic issues. The most serious is Cobb Parkway at Park Forrest Drive between Acworth Due West and Loring Road. Water has washed over the roadway causing the road to be closed until the Georgia Department of Transportation can survey and repair the damage. The road will be closed until that is done.

 

Also Nance Road is closed at Proctor Creek between Main Street and Acworth Due West. This road will be closed until further notice pending an inspection of the bridge.

 

New McEver Road between Cantrell Road and New McEver Drive is closed due to water damage to the shoulder area of the roadway.

 

The City of Acworth is working to resolve traffic issues as soon as possible.
