GRANT TOWN After more than 26 hours of back-breaking work repairing leaks, water service was restored to Grant Town and surrounding areas by dinnertime on Monday.

Mayor Bob Riggs said the problems started last week when a waterline broke on View Avenue on Wednesday. A day later, another waterline broke on Main Street. A boil-water advisory was put into effect.
