Please remember that this is a utility and you will be charged quarterly even if you are not using the water (unless you have our water personnel remove your meter). Please call at least two days in advance to set up a removal appointment.

Ways To Conserve On Water:

  • You can install an aerator on your faucet at a very small fee, which will regulate the water that comes out of the faucet.
  • You can turn the water off while shampooing your hair and back on to rinse it rather than leaving it on all the time.
  • Turn the water off while brushing your teeth.
  • Immediately repair any drips or leaks you may have.
  • Check all toilets to be sure they shut off properly.
  • Check all yard and garden hoses to make sure no leaking occurs.
