Water Meter Replacement Coming SoonThe City of Wayzata has contracted with Ferguson Waterworks and VEPO Metering to replace approximately two-thirds of the residential and commercial water meters throughout the City. Meters were last replaced approximately 20 years ago and are approaching their useful life. The project is anticipated to begin in November of 2024. The contractor will be notifying affected properties, via letter, to schedule appointments, in the coming weeks. There will be no cost to the property owner for this meter upgrade, but owners are required to have the water meter replaced. Property owners will need to ensure that the water shutoff valve on the incoming water service (before your water meter) is in working condition. If the valve does not close or it leaks, it will need to be replaced or repaired prior to scheduling an appointment. Please contact our Assistant Director of Public Works, Nick Nystrom at nnystrom@wayzata.org with any questions regarding water meter replacement. |

Did You Receive a Letter Regarding the City's Water Service Lines?Last week, letters were mailed to approximately 365 property owners regarding their water service lines. The City is in the process of preparing a service line inventory and, according to our records, the service material of these properties is unknown but may contain lead. Lead is not a significant concern in Wayzata’s drinking water. The City tests the water regularly and provides a Consumer Confidence Report (CCR) on an annual basis. The City is simply preparing an inventory based on both state and federal requirements. Please contact our Assistant Director of Public Works, Nick Nystrom at nnystrom@wayzata.org with any questions regarding this notice. |

You can prevent this by keeping leaves off the street and utilizing yard waste collection events like the one below. |
