Maintaining Access to Water Utility Infrastructure
Keep It Clear
District personnel need to access your water meter and fire hydrants easily and quickly. To do that, we ask that you maintain the following:
​
-
Two-foot clearance around all sides of water meters, meter boxes, and fire hydrants.
-
Two-foot wide pathway from the road to the meter box.
-
Ground cover trimmed to 2 inches or lower around the meter box.
-
Tree limbs trimmed at least six feet above the meter box.
-
No vehicles or trailers parked over meter boxes.
Think Before You Plant
While landscaping adds beauty to your property, it can also block access and worse, cause damage to your lines.
Plants, bushes, and ornamental trees may be small when you plant them, but can quickly grow over and block access. Read the labels to find out what their mature growth size will be, and plan accordingly.
​
Roots from trees and shrubs may eventually grow into water lines and service boxes, potentially leading to costly breaks and service interruptions.
Remember, customers are responsible for maintaining and repairing their own water lines.​​
Keep an Eye on Your Meter
By following these simple guidelines, you help ensure accurate meter readings, prevent service disruptions, and support the district’s ability to maintain a safe and efficient water system:
​
-
Keep bushes and grass trimmed to the edge of the meter box.
-
Avoid planting directly around the meter.
-
Regularly check for leaks and monitor your water usage.
