(WCTV) &#8211; A Leon County mobile home park is continuing to cope with a water outage they say has been lasting for about a week.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Residents in more than 40 homes at the Florida Sun Estates Two are raising public health and sanitation concerns, as well as the added financial burden of buying water. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Leon County Commissioner Christian Caban\u2019s office provided aid to the mobile park home after a resident informed them of the outage. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | text-center article-text\">More news out of the Big Bend:<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | text-start article-text\">County agencies distributed water bottles, put up sanitation stations and inspected the water connections in the area. Residents like Steve Branch are eager to get the issue solved. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">\u201cI want water. I want to take a shower. We take them for granted, having water. Go without it for seven days, you won\u2019t take it for granted anymore,\u201d Branch said. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Caban says starting Thursday, the Leon County Department of Health will begin fining the landlord of the property, with one of the fines being $500 a day until the water issue is fixed. <\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">To keep up with the latest news as it develops, follow WCTV on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/WCTV.tv\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/wctvnews\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@WCTVEyewitnessNews\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/nextdoor.com\/page\/wctv\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/nextdoor.com\/page\/wctv\/\" target=\"_blank\">Nextdoor<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/nextdoor.com\/page\/wctv\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/nextdoor.com\/page\/wctv\/\" target=\"_blank\"> <\/a>and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WCTV\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">X<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WCTV\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Have a news tip or see an error? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wctv.tv\/2026\/02\/05\/leon-county-mobile-home-residents-raising-alarm-after-week-with-no-water\/mailto:news@wctv.tv?subject=Correction%20Needed\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Write to us here<\/a>.
