Mayor Dave Taylor outside the Sammy Well southeast of Fairview after crews repairing the well completed their work, including repairing the engine on the well pump.

                 The Sammy Well, which taken off line earlier this summer for repairs, is now fully operational, according to Fairview Mayor Dave Taylor.

                Workers repaired two holes in the system, replaced the pump, cleaned the well, chlorinated the system, and last Wednesday July 11 tested the water, Taylor said.

                “The water tested  fine, and the pump was put back on line last Friday (July 13), although though it will take a couple of weeks to balance out,” Taylor says.  “This is really good news for the city that we got it fixed as quickly as we did.”
