Brighton community tired of coping with filthy water.
BRIGHTON, Colo. — Carlos Morales tells the FOX31 Problem Solvers ugly, brownish-orange, foul smelling water is flowing through the pipes of his home at the Creekside South Estates in Brighton, and now he’s worried about his health.
Morales’ family must boil water or use bottled water to bathe, brush their teeth, do the dishes and everything else.
Mercedes Morales told the Problem Solvers she noticed hair loss after using the water.
“… take a shower with this water?
No!” Shepherd said she has had to tote gallons of fresh water to her horse’s stable.
The Problem Solvers contacted the HOA and learned that they are still working to provide safe drinking water to the community.
This is clearly a complicated problem.
On July 3, 2017 CDPHE issued the “boil water” order due to bacteria.
“Thank you that’s exactly what we’ve been wanting for.” The Problem Solvers will continue to follow the progress in the community as neighbors anxiously await the site of clean water coming from their faucets.
