“We re just all out of water here,” resident Lee Swanson said. Swanson said he has been dealing with his water being on-and-off since Tuesday. He’s also caring for his elderly mother. “We complain about the price of gas, which is deserved, but I mean you don’t have water, you got nothing,” said Swanson. According to the city, the outage was down to affecting homes 2-27 as of Friday afternoon. Swanson’s water was restored. The city says the cold weather plays a role in the water main breaks. “That cold that comes in really penetrates down deep and under the roadway and then because the ground isn t necessarily uniform, it moves in different ways underneath there. So that difference in movements can cause a little bit of side pressure on the pipes,” said director water and waste operations Brendan Lemke.
