ELMENDORF, Texas – The City of Elmendorf on Wednesday issued a boil water notice due to continued repairs on the main water line.
Customers in the area of La Gloria, Old Corpus Christi, CR 163 and south of Loop 1604 are being told to boil water before consumption.

Customers can alternatively use bottled water or other suitable sources of water.
Officials say boiling water is necessary to destroy harmful bacteria and microbes that may cause illness, especially in children, seniors, and persons with weakened immune systems.
Customers will be notified when the boil water notice is no longer in effect, and the water is safe again.
People are asked to share the notice with others who may not have received the notice directly, such as residents in apartments, nursing homes and schools.
The city issued a boil water notice on Feb. 15 after a break in the main water line. The notice was lifted on Feb. 17 but was reissued Wednesday due to the need for more repairs.
