Service interruption

The city will close the intersections at 15th Avenue and Lincoln Street and at 15th Avenue and Dover Road on Tuesday for water valve replacements, the city announced in a news release.

Weather permitting, crews will replace 16-inch water valves beginning at about 7:30 a.m. The work is expected to take about eight hours. During the maintenance, water service customers will not have service along 15th Avenue from Prairie Street to Washington Street, or on Williby Avenue, Presby Drive and Lincoln Street just south of 15th Avenue.

For questions, call Public Works at 340-6339.

Seeks donations

The Salvation Army has issued an urgent appeal for help as the organization is running low on funds. Record floods and severe storms have taxed the resources of many agencies.

The Salvation Army is asking for financial donations to continue its mission. Monetary donations may be mailed to 3637 Broadway, Kansas City, MO 64111. For credit card donations, call (800) SAL-ARMY or log onto armykettle.com.
