Temporary Change of Water Treatment Process

Important Notice to Water Customers

To maintain high water quality in the City's water distribution system, the City of Margate Water Treatment Plant will change its treatment process temporarily to increase the level of free chlorine disinfection from July 31st through August 30th. This proactive measure prevents bacterial growth in the water mains and keeps the water safe for potable uses. Consumers may experience an unusual chlorine taste or odor in the tap water during this period, but these temporary conditions should not cause adverse health effects. If you need more information about this temporary change in the treatment process, please contact the City of Margate, Department of Environmental and Engineering Services (DEES), at (954) 972-0828.

Adopt Don't Shop For Your Next Pet

The Broward County Animal Care and Adoption Division is the place to go to adopt, foster or volunteer your time to care for animals. The shelter is at full capacity, and the County is encouraging animal lovers to adopt your next pet instead of shopping for one.

Incentives are currently being offered. Adoption fees for all dogs and cats continue to be waived (including the adoptable cats at Pet Supermarket stores located in Broward County). Each adoption includes a "swag bag!"

All adoptions include spaying/neutering, all necessary vaccinations, a Broward County Rabies Registration License tag and a microchip!

Broward County Animal Care and Adoption is located at 2400 SW 42nd Street in Fort Lauderdale. The shelter is open Tuesday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Complete the application and bring it with you to the shelter to adopt your new pet: broward.org/Animal.
