Irrigation Meters Available

Irrigation meters may be rented at City Hall for $15. The earlier the meter is used, the greater the savings by crediting sewer charges back to your account. If you have a garden or swimming pool, these meters are for you! The meter records the amount of outside water usage. Your monthly bill does not change, but at the end of the watering season (usually October), you will get a refund on sewer charges for the amount used.
Permanent irrigation meters may be installed in your home by your own licensed plumber. Water only, no sewer, will be billed monthly. Call City Hall for more information.
