021 reports residents’ complaints and JKP Beočin’s response: evening outages are linked to low water levels and higher consumption, with a new well planned for early September.

Overall takeaway

This is an ongoing local water-supply problem, not announced planned works; the September resolution date should be treated as JKP Beočin’s stated intention.

What this means for residents

For the coming days

Rakovac residents should prepare water ahead of the evening and check JKP Beočin notices until an official schedule is published.

The date is not a guarantee

Early September is the utility’s plan, not a confirmed resolution of the current outages.
