🚧Temporary Road Closure – Walker St 🚧 On Monday, July 14, crews will be out bright and early to remove some trees along Walker Street between Chester and Quintard. That stretch will be closed to through traffic while the work is underway — but don’t worry, we’re expecting to wrap up by lunchtime!

Plan ahead, take an alternate route, and give our crews a wave (from a safe distance)! Thanks for your patience as we keep Arlington looking great.

✅ Safe Room Update: Repairs Complete!✅ Remember in May when our Safe Room got a "haircut" by Mother Nature? Well, we’re happy to report the trim is cleaned up and a new roof is in place! While it’s not structural, the roof does help with moisture and climate control, playing an important support role in keeping things comfortable inside.
The big concrete bunker underneath—our actual tornado shelter—never missed a beat. But now it looks as solid on the outside as it always was on the inside.
Thanks for your patience as we got it all fixed up. The Safe Room is looking sharp again and, more importantly, still ready if and when you need it

🚨Smoke Testing Starts Today🚨 Reminder to those in Arlington Downs - the Wastewater Department will be conducting smoke testing in your neighborhood to help us identify any leaks or cracks in the sanitary sewer system. Testing will run from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., July 7–8.

WHAT YOU MIGHT SEE: You may notice harmless, white or gray smoke coming from manholes, vents, or even the ground. This is completely normal and part of the test!

WHAT IT MEANS: The smoke helps us locate places where rainwater might sneak into the sewer system. It’s non-toxic, odorless, and won’t stain—just a clever tool in our utility toolbox.

WHAT TO DO:
- Pour about a gallon of water into any rarely used drains (like in your basement or guest bath) to ensure traps are filled.
- If smoke somehow enters your home, open some windows and let the crew nearby know - or Call Us!
- No need to be home, just be aware!

📞 Questions? Give us a call at 901-867-1782. Thank you for your cooperation as we work to improve our infrastructure!

🎉 That’s a Wrap, Arlington! We’ve officially wrapped up our Community Walking program — and what a fantastic run of 6-week classes it’s been!
