Water to be interrupted

Water service to portions of Marion’s south hill will be disrupted for an indeterminate period Thursday as part of the city’s water main replacement project.

“There will be a large water outage on Thursday,” project engineer Darin Neufeld of EBH Engineering told city council members Monday. “We were going to reuse the valve on Freeborn and Main Sts., but when we got in, we found the valve went to about 30 feet of patches,” he said.
