UPDATE: Due to the continued water restriction but large need for people to wash their clothes, the City is going have the laundromat open tomorrow starting at 7:00am on a trial basis to help elevate the need. Please continue to refrain from doing laundry at home since we can’t monitor the usage.

New Update
At this time the water restriction for Canton will stay in affect. Even with the small amount of rain the City received, it set off the emergency alarms. City crews are still pumping and discharging the lagoons to help with the influx of water and will re-evaluate tomorrow. Thank you for your continued patience.
