Q. Even though I have an outside water meter reader, should my inside meter also be read?
A. While there is an outside reader which allows the meter to be read it is good practice to have your inside meter read at least once per year. This assures that the outside reader is operating properly.

If it has been a period of time more that one year you should contact the

water department at 592-7770 and schedule an inside reading.

The flushing may cause temporary water discoloration. Please check for discolored water before doing any laundry during the week the hydrants in your area are being flushed. When the Water Department undertakes these types of flushings notices advising of the schedule are posted door to door prior to the actual flushing taking place.
