BECAUSE Calumet Grove is NORTH of 466 where they use tap water like from inside the house.
Reclaimed water from ponds is used SOUTH of 466. It can be stinky especially in high temperatures.

The smell is new area wide last night and this morning and folks are not relating sprinkler smells but a general smell to the area. I don't have a clue what it is..
