Update (12/09/20):

E-Mail received from KC Water regarding taste and smell of water:

"We did experience a change in taste over the past couple of weeks. It was the result of changing river conditions and treatment modifications. For the most part, those challenges have been addressed and the water is tasting much better for most of our customers. However, it does take time for the water to get through the system and we expect Jackson County customers to have better water very soon. Throughout this, the water has remained safe. It continues to meet all regulatory standards. We take this seriously and are doing out best to deliver a high quality product.

Thank you for your patience.

KC Water"
