City of Apple Valley issued the following announcement on Dec. 9.
Prevent freeze damage at your property and in your neighborhood this winter. Consider shutting your water off while you're away.
If you plan to leave your home on vacation for an extended period of time this winter, you might want to consider shutting the water off (at the meter) in case the heat goes out while you’re away. This simple act will minimize the amount of water damage to your home in the event of a frozen pipe.
Additionally, if you are aware of any vacant properties in your neighborhood please report such properties to the Code Enforcement Department, so we can note and address any neglected maintenance needs.
With questions or concerns or to report a vacant property in your neighborhood please contact Apple Valley Code Enforcement by email at codeenforce@ci.apple-valley.mn.us; or by phone at 952.953.2570.
