Hydrant Flushing
The Saukville Water Department will be flushing hydrants throughout the Village between 8:00 a.m. and 2:30 p.m.

October 13th through October 16th & October 20th through 23rd.  There may be some discoloration in your water during this process. This is iron and is not harmful. We recommend that you do not do laundry if your water is discolored.  If you forget and your clothes have a reddish appearance, DO NOT DRY THE CLOTHES; rather rewash in cold water to remove the discoloration. Running the tap for a short period of time will clear the lines after the flushing is complete.

Tip 411 - Complete Anonymous Police Tips

"SKPD Tips"  is an app for Android and iPhone devices that enables the public to send anonymous tips to the Saukville police and lets the police respond back, creating a two way anonymous "chat".   "SKPD Tips" puts a powerful new crime fighting tool into the hands of our community for all ages and demographics.  The "SKPD Tips" app can be downloaded online at the Google Play Store, iTunes App Store, or by visiting the Police Department's website at http://www.village.saukville.wi.us/Police/

 

Citizens can also send an anonymous tip to the Saukville Police Department by texting the word SKPD and their tip to 847411.   

 

Anonymous web tips can be submitted from the Saukville Police Department's website at http://www.village.saukville.wi.us/Police/ or the "CitizenObserver" online site at http://www.citizenobserver.com/cov6/app/webTipForm.html?id=10873. It's 100% anonymous.  CitizenObserver's technology removes all identifying information before the police department see's it so there's no way to identify the sender.
