Boil Water Advisory Lifted: Woodmont, Brennerton, Kilgore

This advisory has been lifted.

The City of Kalamazoo is in the process of repairing water infrastructure on Woodmont Avenue. This work is scheduled for Wednesday, July 29, 2026, starting at approximately 8:00 a.m., at which time the water will be shut off. The work will result in a temporary loss of pressure and consequently, a precautionary boil water advisory is being issued in cooperation with the Kalamazoo County Health and Community Services Department for all water intended for drinking or ingestion or any consumptive uses within the affected area (see provided map), including:

  • Woodmont Drive– From East Kilgore Road (northern boundary) to Windyridge Drive (southern boundary), both sides of the roadway. It does not include the southwest and the northwest corner of Midfield Drive. It also does not include the southwest corner of Windyridge Drive and Woodmont Drive.

  • Kilgore Road- Only includes the southeast corner of Kilgore Road and Woodmont Drive.

This advisory is precautionary only; there have not been any confirmed tests showing bacteria present in the water main at the location of the infrastructure repair.  Initial sampling results will be available within 24 hours of its collection and the final set within 48 hours. It is expected that the advisory will be lifted within 72 hours (August 01).

Municipal water customers in the affected area may use bottled water for consumptive purposes or boil their tap water for two minutes prior to use for drinking or other ingestion.  No special precautionary measures are necessary for water used for personal hygiene.
