Questions about water construction

Dear Editor,

Driving around the west side of town have noticed several water "spots" where new water pipes have been placed and are leaking? Some of these "spots" have been there for some time. Why have they NOT been repaired? Also why is a new street torn up before leaks are repaired?

Currently why is the water being placed in the street on the East street of Malta High School starting now when school is about to start?

Hopefully someone from the company doing the job will contact me and let me know why this project has so many pipes leaking. I'm in the local phone book - thanks for taking time to contact me.

Barbara Schlocker,
