The water and sewer crews provide hookup/installation to
the town's water and wastewater system, as well as maintenance on backups.
Residents wishing to activate service to an existing facility must contact
Public Works, complete the necessary application, and provide payment for
the turn-on. A deposit of $75 for commercial properties, and $50 for
residential properties is required before service can be activated.
Usually, the town can activate an existing building the same day that the
request for service is received, depending on current workloads.
A bare property requires a water meter and sewer
connection, which takes about two weeks to complete. This includes marking
the utility, scheduling the meter installation, and hooking up to the
Town's sewer main.
The wastewater treatment plant handles 350,000 gallons per
day, with expansion plans to handle over 870,00 gallons per day.
