Plainview Water District Commissioners stress the importance of keeping fire hydrants accessible all year long.

The Plainview Volunteer Fire Department does an excellent job of protecting the
lives and homes of our residents. We must all keep in mind that fire hydrant
accessibility is a primary factor in fighting fires successfully. That's why Plainview
Water District Commissioners Edward Shulroff, Kevin Langberg, and Joel
Kessler would like to remind homeowners and local businesses to make sure
they keep areas surrounding fire hydrants clear so the fire department can
connect its equipment without delay.

"For your own protection and the protection of those you care about, the Plainview
Water District urges you to keep this responsibility in mind; please remember
when colder weather approaches to remove any snow that surrounds fire
hydrants in front of your property. It is not only an important way to help our
everyday heroes, but people's lives may depend on it," said Edward Shulroff,
Chairman of the Board of Commissioners.

The Plainvew Water District Board of Commissioners would like to thank its
residents in advance for adhering to the Chairman's suggestion.
