Voyles Drive, Parkin, 72373 Arkansas, United States
The residents of Parkin are getting sick from the water and have been for so long that the majority of them have given up hopes of a remedy by speaking to the city council and voicing their concerns so they have just stopped drinking the water, completely. I'm new to the town but a lifelong resident of Cross County so I was unaware of all of this when I moved into Parkin this past September. It has caused me to become sick and my children nor we can get the water on us without whelping up even just by brushing our teeth! Literal red burning inflammation roads highlighting the path the water takes from the corners of our mouth and it lasts almost an hour!! I have been told the city has had the funds granted to them to redo the water system here but for some reason the residents say that the mayor and/or city council won't come together and agree on terms to allow the work to begin. I spoke with a member of the fire department today and asked about getting the water tested because i had deduced myself after the inflamation on contact to the skin that its imperative that we know what we have been exposed to and he informed me that and I quote " No one here drinks the water. There's always a boil order, matter of fact there's one that's current now" When i asked whose job was it to make the citizens are made aware he just shrugged an stated "I dont know". PLEASE HELP!
