LaBelle residents will see a boil water notice after a mainline repair at the water plant Thursday night. The City of LaBelle said water service will be temporarily interrupted starting at 10 p.m. tonight, and upon completion of the repair, a boil water notice will be in effect until further notice. Residents are advised to boil water for at least one minute before it's used for drinking, cooling, making ice, brushing teeth, or other consumption purposes until the notice is lifted. City officials also said residents may experience low water pressure or no water service during the repair.
