Building Livable Communities: Water and Wastewater Service

New homes can be part of infrastructure solutions.

Water and sewer capacity are an important consideration whenever new development is proposed. However, the impact of development varies depending on the systems in place and the development history of the community.  In some communities, especially gateway cities and other communities with an industrial past, there may be excess capacity in the local water and sewer systems and adding rate payers through new development may help to keep the costs of maintaining the systems down for individual residents.
