My water tastes funny. Why?

Is there a garden hose attached to your outside faucet? If the water is turned "on" but suspended from flowing by a hose nozzle, this may allow the water to back up into your house system and the strange taste may be coming from the garden hose at the outside faucet. If the hose is not the problem, the District can send someone out to flush the water main and help you troubleshoot the problem.
