New Tap Connections
New tap connections to our water system require an Application (see forms below) submitted in advance of any construction work.
As a stockholder-owned company, each new tap requires the purchase of the appropriate shares of Capital Stock and payment of all applicable fees. The Company will utilize the following methods and criteria to determine the tap and meter size and the required shares of Stock and water development fees: the number of residential units on the property, the number of fixtures within a multi-family or commercial property, or the estimated volume of water taken on an annual basis by the property, whichever is greater.
Redevelopment and Remodel Projects
Redevelopment and remodel projects submit either the Change of Use form (see forms below), or Change of Use/Remodel Application form depending on the scope of work of the project.
