Cottage Hill Water Works: Boil Water Notice Neal Road Area

September 21, 2026

Cottage Hill Water Works performed system upgrades on Monday on Neal Road west of Forehand Lane that also affected Ridge Way, Hillock Drive, and Knollwood Drive. These areas experienced a loss of water service for a short period of time while the upgrades were completed.

The utility is advising, as a precaution, that all water in the area that is used for drinking, cooking, making ice, brushing teeth, or washing dishes be boiled. A rolling boil of one minute is sufficient. As an alternative bottled water may be used.

This precautionary boil water notice will remain in effect until the problem has been corrected and a bacteriological survey shows that the water is safe to drink.

For more information, contact the utility’s office at at (850) 968-5485

This story will be updated when the boil water notice is rescinded.
