The taste/smell in the water supply has been a problem for years. The last time I brought up the subject to the City, they sent someone out to flush the water line--turn on a nearby fire hydrant. Of course, after a few days the water returns to smell/taste. So, what is being done to solve the problem? What is the position of the Health Department?

Black flakes in my water that leave a greasy residue. I last reported this issue on March 16, 2026.
The issue is not consistent but seems to pop up randomly which makes it a threat as it is easy not to notice when I am potentially showering with it, washing with it, and even drinking it.
Photo shows the black residue left after filling my bathtub with water only. Quarter for scale.
Note: I re-submitted to include my address

My tap water has had a yellowish color for the last two days. What is causing this and is it a city wide issue?

I don’t know if I am contacting the correct department. We walked by a retention pond and huge drainpipe on Buick-Cadillac Dr. A foul-smelling odor, smelling like potent bubblegum, grew in odor and started taking our breath away. I was reminded of a similar odor emanating from an Eli Lilly plant on the south side of Indianapolis. Should this water area in the midst of commercial activity be analyzed? We don’t wish to breathe in toxic fumes.

Since the boil water was lifted the water tastes like dirt. It’s not fit for drinking it tastes so bad! I don’t even want to brush my teeth with it. It doesn’t smell good either. I barely want to bathe in it. Hopefully this problem can be corrected soon!
