WHAT'S IN YOUR WATER?
Drink with
Confidence! In the City of
Burlington, we use four deep wells
that deliver safe, quality water to
our citizens and business customers.
To ensure that
quality, City water is tested (both
at the wells and throughout the
distribution system) and treated
with chlorine according to state and
federal regulations. Each year the
Burlington Water Utility issues a
Drinking Water Quality Report,
listing the levels of any substances
detected, the sources of those
substances, and any violations that
may have occurred from them. In 2007
the City of Burlington had no
violations that exceed the safe
drinking water standards. A copy of
this report is posted at the Library
and at City Hall. It is also
available on the City website or by
calling the Water Utility office at
342-1173.

Kohls Department Store Update
The new Kohls Department Store is
well on it's way to completion.
Within just a few short
months the 68,900 square foot
building that will house the
department store rose quickly from
the ground brick by brick. The
original projected opening date is
still slotted for October 1, 2008.
In the weeks to come construction
will cease and store stocking will
commence in preparation for the
Grand Opening.
