Need help with housing insecurity?

The Potter’s House Saluda is excited to receive support from the United Way of the Lakelands to bolster our efforts to address housing insecurity among the families we work with on a daily basis. 

The grant award opens the door for our team to assess housing in Saluda on a broader scale and explore strategies to help those in need. 

If you know of someone who is facing housing instability, in danger of eviction and/or would benefit from housing counseling, please provide contact information using the link below.

Boil Water Advisory: 08/28/2023

Boil Water Advisory: 08/28/2023

The Saluda CPW water system advises the customers of its public water system that reside on North Main Street between the intersections of Church Street and Travis Avenue in the Town of Saluda to vigorously boil their water for at least one (1) full minute prior to drinking and cooking.

A problem experienced in the water distribution system resulted in a loss of pressure and water service to some customers. There has been no confirmed contamination in the system; however, because of this loss of pressure, the potential for contamination exists. Therefore, as a precautionary measure, the CPW is advising its customers, in the affected area, to vigorously boil their water for at least one (1) full minute prior to drinking or cooking until notified otherwise. Also, any ice made from water which has not been boiled should not be used for drinking purposes.

The Saluda CPW water system is working to correct the problem and restore pressure and water service as soon as possible.

If you have any questions concerning this notice, you may contact the Saluda CPW at 864-445-2090
