Original story:
A boil water advisory has been issued for Lincoln, St. Joseph, Royalton townships. The city of St. Joseph says it’s due to a water main break near Marquette Woods Road and Hickory Creek. The city says all residents of the three townships should vigorously boil all water being used for consumption or oral hygiene for one minute before use. The public works department has isolated the break and is restoring pressure. Another notice will be issued when the boil water advisory is lifted. Anyone with questions should contact the city’s water plant.
