HAMA Members, 

Please share this information with your tenants by forwarding this email or printing the 2024 Hydrant Flushing Schedule flyer (PDF) and posting in common areas, laundry rooms, by mailboxes or near entrances. 

Hydrant Flushing Begins April 8

Hopkins Public Works utility crews will be flushing fire hydrants throughout the community April 8-26. Residents are cautioned against doing laundry - particularly whites - while crews are in the neighborhood. 

Hydrant Flushing Schedule:

• April 8-12: Hydrants north of Excelsior Boulevard and west of Highway 169
• April 15-19: Hydrants south of Excelsior Boulevard and west of Highway 169
• April 22-26: Hydrants east of Highway 169

If water is still discolored once crews leave, residents should run the cold water until it runs clear. 

If you own or manage a business or townhome/apartment complex, please arrange for your private hydrants to be flushed by a contractor during the same time frame that the City is flushing in your area. Find more information about hydrant flushing.

If you have questions or experience any problems, please contact Utilities Supervisor Sean Moilanen at 952-548-6353 or email smoilanen@hopkinsmn.com. 

Update Regarding Future HAMA Emails

In early 2024, Google and Yahoo implemented a new email delivery rule to primarily target senders of bulk emails. CivicPlus, the City of Hopkins' website provider, falls within the scope of this rule. Due to this change and the authentication requirements that come along with this, the City will no longer be able to send HAMA emails through the custom "City of Hopkins" email address. Beginning in April, HAMA emails will be sent from the listserv@civicplus.com email address.
