Letter: what is the deal with our water quality?

Icon readers want to know:

What is the deal with our water quality? Most days the Ottawa water quality is much softer, though not very tasty, compared to the old Bluffton water.

But we have had repeated periods of very rusty water, making our toilets nasty and laundry a nightmare.

Why is this happening and will it ever end? If it is related to repair work, can the Village notify residents?
