FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
MANATEE COUNTY, FL (Tuesday, January 13, 2026) – Manatee County Utilities Department will be issuing a Precautionary Boil Water Notice for our customers at Sun Key Village, Piney Point Homeowners, including 2785 and 3010 85th ST E, Palmetto.
Tuesday, January 13, 2026 between the hours of 9:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m on Wednesday morning, water will be shut off to cut in valves. Customers are advised that once service is restored, all water used for drinking or cooking should be boiled as a precaution. A rolling boil for one minute is sufficient. Alternatively, bottled water may be used.
This precautionary notice will remain in effect until a bacteriological survey has shown the water to be safe, normally 24-48 hours. A Rescission Notice will be issued when lifted. If residents have any questions, they may call 941-792-8811 ext: 5268 or 5216 between 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
*Regulations require that two consecutive samples be collected for bacteriological quality following the water being shut off. To restore full service as soon as possible, the Department of Health allows rescission of the precautionary boil water notice if the first sample is bacteriologically acceptable and the second sample meets certain general water quality standards. However, if the second sample is bacteriologically questionable or unacceptable, then this precautionary boil water notice will be reissued until two consecutive bacteriologically acceptable samples are demonstrated.
