Team Effort - Safekeeping the Water and Sewer System

It’s safe to say that with the way the economy is going, we are all concerned about saving money, especially tax payer dollars. An easy way to do that, and to promote the safety and health of the water/sewer system, is to be mindful of what is flushed or put down the drains. Please do not flush or put down the drains needles, medications, paper or cloth towels, kitchen grease/oil, diapers, plastic, etc.

City employees and contractors have recently seen just about all of those in the sewer system the last few weeks, and it causes a hazard to the system and the employees, which ultimately impacts the costs of maintaining and operating the system. Please do your part and help safeguard the system. Thank you!
