The City of Arroyo Grande is warning the public of a potential scam targeting water customers.
Similar to neighboring cities, individuals visit Arroyo Grande residents and falsely claim that city water is contaminated, and advise them not to drink the water. The alleged scammers then attempt to sell water treatment products based on the false claims.
The water in Arroyo Grande continues to be safe to drink and is continually monitored and tested to meet all health and safety standards. Water quality information can be found on the city’s website.
Resident with concerns regarding water quality or safety can contact the Public Works Utilities Division directly at (805) 473-5460.
