A water quality advisory is in effect at Bender Park beach.
According to the advisory, residents should swim at their own risk, not ingest the water and shower after swimming. Recent monitoring for the E. coli bacteria shows an increased risk for illness.
The hot and dry weather has caused problems at the Bender Park beach, which was shut down for about two weeks earlier this summer due to elevated levels of E. coli.
