The City of West Kelowna has issued a boil water notice for Lakeview System water users.

The notice impacts the Shannon Lake, Lakeview Heights and Casa Loma neighbourhoods in West Kelowna.

“Ugh, so sorry customers, friends and family on the Lakeview System, but we must issue a boil water notice for you all as our very old chlorination plant at Rose Valley Reservoir has had a mechanical failure.” said the city in a statement on Facebook.

“We are making repairs, but until futher notice, all Lakeview System users must use boiled water or take clean bottles and hoses for filling at the bulk station at Asquith and Shannon Lake Roads.”

The city advises impacted users to boil their water for brushing their teeth, drinking and when preparing produce.
