Water is supplied by the Village in accordance with Bylaw No 2/2003. Water users are considered Annual if hooked up to the Village system year round, or Seasonal if hooked up from May 15 – October 15. Water rates are as follows:
To request water reconnection or disconnection, contact the Village office. PLEASE NOTE: As with any utility service provided, the Village requires a minimum of 24 hours notice for all water service requests. Those requests which do not provide ample notice WILL NOT BE FULFILLED.
The water treatment plant upgrade to include the operation of a reverse osmosis system was concluded in 2015. An additional well to meet water service demands followed in 2016. Although water supply has been increased, users are asked to mindful of water usage, especially during peak seasons. Alternative methods for watering lawns are encouraged, as this decreases the burden on the treatment system.
