Coweta residents speak out after three-day-long boil order, city hopeful to lift it Wednesday

Many people living in Coweta are frustrated after being under a boil order for the past three days.

This comes after an issue with the repair in a water line over the weekend.

WATER ISSUES

Jolene Brooks and Joyce Bradshaw live in the same Coweta apartment that is under a boil order.

“I’ve lived here for three years and the water’s been brown off and on in the toilets and the bathtub to where you have to bleach them once a week or every other day actually because the ring in the toilet will be brown like rust,” said Brooks.

“We live with it,” said Bradshaw. “We’ve gotten used to it. We live with it and we do what we have to do to make it work.”

Since Sunday, they have had to boil their water before using it, after the city says a repair on a water line fell apart.

“It’s awful,” said
