The Village of Port Chester is once again dealing with another water main break in less than a month.
This is now the fourth one. The most recent one was Thursday on Westchester Avenue.
Village Mayor Luis Marino says something needs to be done.
"A lot of this stuff is not in my hands, in the village of Port Chester's hands because otherwise, I would stop it. I'm not happy," he says.
He says they've been told it may be connected to inaccuracies in historical underground utility maps showing where existing water mains are located.
Regardless, Marino says he wants to apologize to the residents and local businesses because they're the ones suffering. He adds that he plans on talking with the county executive to see what can be done.
