The city is going through the process of treating its water distribution system to maintain safe and delicious water. The process includes switching the disinfectant used from chloramines to a free chlorine. The city does this on a regular basis to improve the quality of its drinking water. While some customers (including South Daytona water customers) may notice a slight difference in the taste of the water, the water continues to be safe to drink. The treatment and flushing will be completed by Thursday, Sept. 29. If you have any questions concerning this procedure, please call the water department at (386) 671-8815 or (386) 671-8809.
