Kincardine council is urging residents to keep faucets running in their homes for another two weeks to help keep waterlines from freezing.

At the meeting Wednesday night (April 1), councillor Laura Haight, policy chairperson for water and wastewater systems, told council that the work has been completed to replace the frozen watermain on Durham Market South.
