COOK COUNTY - Some Brookfield residents will be under a boil water order after crews repair a leaking water main valve, officials said Wednesday.

What we know:

Water service has been shut off for homes in the 4100 and 4200 blocks of Madison Avenue while crews fix a leak near Rochester Avenue, according to Brookfield Public Works.

Once service is restored, a boil order will be in place for those homes.

The order means residents should boil tap water before using it for drinking, cooking or brushing their teeth until further notice. Taking a shower doesn't require a boil.

What we don't know:

Officials did not say how long repairs would take or when the boil order would be lifted. An update will be provided once the work is completed.
