Residents of Shea Heights are advised that due to a water main break on the main water feed, a precautionary Boil Water Advisory (BWA) is now in effect.

The BWA applies to all the residents within Shea Heights. The BWA has been issued as a precautionary measure due to the whole area experiencing little to no water pressure as the water main is being repaired.
