The City of Round Rock is urging people to stay out of Brushy Creek as they deal with an issue at their water treatment plant.
The city reported an issue with their water treatment plant, and it’s had a direct impact on the creek.
The one scenic view along Brushy Creek is now covered up in murky sludge and a harsh oder. "I’m not going to play in it or ride in it if it’s polluted," said Marykay Breckinridge who lives near the creek. As the issue continued to flow into the creek the city had to place signs throughout the area urging people to stay out of the creek as they test it for contamination.
On Thursday the city gave an update to where they are at. "It’s disappointing to me, but we will get brushy creek back to where it needs to be," said Micheal Thane the Round Rock Utility director.
