Water Main Flushing

Tentatively Scheduled

For March 9th-13th.

Water main flushing, often scheduled at least twice a year, spring o& fall.

This is a routine maintenance process to remove sediment, reduce iron/manganese buildup, and improve water quality by cleaning pipes. While the water remains safe to consume, it may cause temporary, minor discolored (rust-colored) water and reduced pressure during the flushing process.

One Call Now is an automated messaging service the Village utilizes in case of emergency, or for town-wide notices.

Danvers was laid out under the name of “Concord” on February 20, 1836.

Between 1835 and 1837 eight new towns and many additions were laid out in McLean County as a part of the great town founding surge in Illinois.

In 1836 Illinois had no way of regulating town names and popular names were frequently repeated, at least two other places in Illinois named Concord. Therefore, in 1861, the name of the town was changed to Danvers, later incorporated as a village under a special charter on May 7, 1869.
