City officials breathed a sigh of relief Monday as the water supply in Temple returned to normal.A boil water notice for all consumed water expired at 6 p.m. Monday.The notice was issued Friday and extended past the original Sunday midnight expiration due to continued repair work on the main waterline.Interim Utilities Superintendent Randall Holly said the water supply was meeting demand."It may take us two days at this demand to get (the storage tanks) full, but we have enough water to meet demand," he said.He said most of the tanks were about 50 percent full and filling.He added that things will be completely back to normal when the tanks are full again.Assistant City Manager Sam Listi said additional repairs to the line Sunday delayed the scheduled reopening of the main line, and extended the required water boil period."We started calling restaurants, car washes, schools about the situation," he said, adding "it was a massive effort last night getting ready for today."Listi said city and school district employees worked last night to gather bottled water for Monday's school day.A Stage 5 emergency, enacted by the City Council Thursday under the city's drought contingency plan was scheduled to end at midnight Saturday, but was extended 24 hours by City Manager Mark Watson. by Anna Foster

Plans for Temple's latest retail attraction have been finalized and the project is moving ahead.The Seitz Group, Inc., of Dallas announced Monday it has completed the purchase of Temple Towne Center, a 28.81-acre site on the south side of Skyline Drive and north Loop 363.Construction will begin immediately with a targeted October completion date for the 276,000- square-foot shopping center.The center will be anchored by Staples, Shoe Carnival, Ross, Bed, Bath and Beyond, Marshalls, Goody's, Hobby Lobby, Petco, Books-A-Million and Lifeway Christian Books."I think we've all breathed a sigh of relief," said City Manager Mark Watson. "We're now moving into the construction phase and all of our hard work has paid off."Final plat for the shopping center was approved by Temple's Planning and Zoning Commission last August with an initial estimated construction start of September.Two stores that were originally slated to lease space, Old Navy and Jo-Ann Fabrics, never finalized. Nevertheless, Eric Seitz, president and owner of The Seitz Group, Inc., said the retail center is a golden asset to the city."Some of the stores decided they weren't ready to come to this marketplace, but what we have now is a substantial line up for the city and I think it will do well," he said. by Tamika Terry
