Due to an unexpected drop in water pressure in most of the Vista Ridge and Carneros Ranch neighborhoods, the city of Leander has issued a boil water notice for parts of the subdivisions.

According to the city notice, areas affected in Vista Ridge include streets west of Nogales Lane and Peregrine Way and streets west of the intersection of Pinot Noir Street and Chardonnay Drive in Carneros Ranch.

While it is not likely the area water supply has been contaminated, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality requires that customers be notified, according to the city. Residents are encouraged to boil and cool water prior to consumption or purchase bottled water.

Samples of the water are being taken to a state-approved laboratory for analysis, and test results should be available Saturday afternoon.
