FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

MANATEE COUNTY, FL – Manatee County Utilities Department will be issuing a Precautionary Boil Water Notice for our customers at Bayshore Gardens Condo Apts, and 5852-5880 14th St W after the water has been restored.

A Water Line Break happened on Tuesday, May 19, 2026. The water will be shut off at 3:00 PM.

Customers are advised that once service is restored, all water used for drinking or cooking should be boiled as a precaution. A rolling boil of one minute is sufficient. As an alternative, 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, and this webpage will be updated. For any questions, please call 941-792-8811, ext. 5268 or 5216, between 7:00 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday through Sunday.

*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.
