Outside Water Use

The Village bases their sewer charges on the amount of water used each quarter. To avoid paying sewer charges on water used for outside purposes, such as lawn watering and swimming pools, residents may purchase a second water meter or have the sewer portion of the bill based on average usage. The charge for a second meter is $100.00, payable at the Village Office. The resident would then be given a water meter to be plumbed and installed by the resident's licensed contractor. After installation, an inspection from Water Department personnel is required prior to service being started. In order for an average usage to be used in figuring a utility bill the property owner must contact Village Hall.
