Weekend risk for running out of water remains but officials see some progress<\/a><\/p>\n “I was surprised that it would have such an effect. We\u2019ve lived in Manlius 50 years and I don\u2019t remember a main break where we\u2019d have to conserve,” he said. <\/p>\n
Squadrito stressed the importance of conservation. He said, “If everybody had that attitude, we’d be running out of water for Christmas, right?”<\/p>\n
Local businesses are also feeling the strain. Avery Burke, owner of Pavone\u2019s in Manlius, noted the challenges of conserving water in a commercial kitchen. <\/p>\n
“From a business perspective, it\u2019s a little bit different than home usage; there are things that we absolutely need the water for to be open and provide the service to the community that we do,” he said. Despite the difficulties, Burke assured that his staff is doing everything possible to reduce usage while adhering to health regulations.<\/p>\n
At Holland Farms Bakery and Deli, manager Charlie Potrzeba described their efforts to adapt. <\/p>\n
“We\u2019ve been trying to fill up on water in the morning and just try to skim it down throughout the day in hopes that we won\u2019t run out,” he said. Potrzeba acknowledged the challenges but affirmed their commitment to staying open.<\/p>\n
Car washes in the affected area have voluntarily ceased operations to conserve water, with the Onondaga County Water Authority ready to enforce shutdowns if necessary. The community continues to navigate the uncertainty of repairs, hoping for a swift resolution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As crews work to stabilize the water system in Manlius, residents are adjusting to a conservation mandate that…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":367591,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[192,79],"class_list":["post-367590","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-environment","tag-environment","tag-science"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/367590","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=367590"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/367590\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/367591"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=367590"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=367590"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=367590"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
