Dierks Update July 17

11:30am update- Mayor Ronnie Cogburn is asking the citizens of Dierks to please conserve water. They are still having issues filling up the tanks. He believes there may be another leak that they have not found yet.

Cleanup efforts are underway in the city of Dierks. Mayor Ronnie Cogburn says the park received significant damage. He says the flash flooding dropped gravel, took out fences, moved the walking track, and even flipped a concrete dugout. Mayor Cogburn thanked all of the city employees, police department, and fire department for their assistance on Tuesday. Some city employees worked until 2:30 last night, also helping to pump water out of the electric substation, and returned to work at 7 this morning. Some city residents may have low water pressure due to a main break. The city of Dierks is currently under a boil order notice.
