Message from Village President Keneipp

Minier Village residents.  A recent water main break on North Main Avenue required a boil order to be put in place for the Village.  All protocols set by the Federal and State EPA bodies were followed immediately.  This meant a sample was to be sent to an independent lab, analyzed, and a report sent back to Minier.  This report either allowed us to lift the boil order or submit additional samples.  As of a little before 11 am August 24, 2024, the boil order for the Village was lifted.  This notification to residents was made via several means.  One being a phone message sent through ‘One Call’, which residents can opt into.  If you have not taken advantage of this free service, just call the Village Office (309-392-2442) during regular business hours to be placed on the listing.  The Facebook page, “Village of Minier Office” is another means of informing residents of alerts or updates such as what just occurred with the boil order.  The Village web site (minier.com) also will be used for such updates and notices. Notices were posted at the Minier Post Office and other local businesses. However, you may have a friend, relative, or neighbor who does not use any of the methods listed above.  If so, make an effort to share what information you get with them.  All Village Departments, Public Works, Village Office, and Police, worked tirelessly during this extremely difficult situation as they do in similar situations.  I personally wish to thank these employees for their dedication as they serve Minier.  Often, we do not realize that these employees take very seriously their role in providing you, the residents, the best possible environment in which to live, raise a family, or enjoy retirement.  I waited to make this announcement in order to gather all the facts pertinent to the situation.  I would rather put out information that has been verified than ‘jump the gun’ so to speak.  Please, as you see any Village employee, during the workday or elsewhere, express your thanks.  They deserve it!!
