recently my water has begun tasting like dirt/pond water like it did in the spring with heavy rain. It smells this way as well. I live in SE Bloomington in Hyde Park neighborhood and hear others are experiencing this as well. Thank you.
The water is tasting like dirt like it did this time last year. Is it possible to treat the water sooner this year? We had to buy bottled water for two months last year because it tasted so bad. Thank you!
Water on northwest side of town tastes like dirt. Kids said it's like that at Fairview elementary as well
Water tastes very bad and smells dirty
the water has an off taste, moldy taste and smell. Others have also noted on Next Door that they are experiencing this problem. Started Saturday, the 27th
Water tastes like dirt as it did in September of 2021.
My water line was hoked up last week to the new supply that has been installed on N Hancock Dr. I expected a bit of flavor difference, but this plastic taste is NOT diminishing. I have run water for 1/2 hour in the house a couple times, but no great success. Could you please flush the new lines at the hydrants ? Bill Goodhew
Water is brown at my residence. Not Normal
The water smells and tastes TERRIBLE!! It seems that this is a recurring problem. I suspect there is a solution that the city is unwilling to implement. It is unacceptable to have this problem every year. Calling it an aesthetic problem is a cop out. I should not have to buy bottled water to have drinkable water.
