This new boil water notice isn’t the one that was in effect over the weekend

DNEAL@MIAMIHERALD.COM

THURSDAY UPDATE: The boil water notice has been lifted.

Monday’s precautionary boil water notice in Fort Lauderdale shouldn’t be confused with Saturday’s still-active precautionary boil water notice in the city.

Monday’s concerns the properties on Isle of Venice Drive, where emergency water repairs at 50 Isle of Venice Dr. could cause low or no water pressure. Until at least Wednesday, people in the buildings on Isle of Venice Drive should bring tap water to a rolling boil for at least a minute before using it for drinking, ice, cooking, brushing teeth or washing dishes.

Or, bottled water could be used.

As of Tuesday morning, the city had yet to lift Saturday’s boil water notice in effect for 777 Bayshore Dr., caused by emergency water main repairs at Bayshore Drive and Vistamar Street. The notice remains in effect until the area water passes testing on two consecutive days.
