We flush the water system every spring and fall to remove minerals that accumulate in water mains and improve water flow. Flushing doesn’t affect water safety, but you may want to delay doing laundry to avoid potential discoloration of clothing. Please note the flushing schedule has been revised since the View from the Curb was mailed.
The Complete Streets Policy establishes performance measures for street design and considers how each street project can be an opportunity to apply complete streets design principles for the equity and safety of all users. The Complete Streets policy was approved by the Kalamazoo City Commission in January 2019.
