Mayor Turner speaks at water distribution at Delmar Stadium

Mayor Turner provides update on city's water system

HOUSTON – Due to overwhelming demand from the public, Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner announced that Friday’s water distribution at Delmar Stadium will begin one hour earlier than scheduled.

As low water pressure remains an issue across the city, many Houstonians are without water or lack the power to boil drinking water.
