Water Outage Sellentin/Marble Bay Rds

Water Outage Sellentin/Marble Bay Rds

There will be a planned water outage tomorrow (Thurs Jan 27) from 1-3pm while a new connection is installed on Sellentin Rd. Residents affected are those on Marble Bay Rd between Mary Mary and Sellentin, and those on Sellentin between Marble Bay Rd and Main St.

Water operators are visiting affected residents this afternoon to give notice.

If you are in this area, we recommend ensuring all faucets are closed and turning off power to your hot water tank tomorrow before the outage begins, particularly if you are not going to be at home.

Annual Invoices

Annual Invoices

Invoices for 2022 Water Tolls and Parcel Taxes were mailed early in January. If you have not received yours, please contact us. Big thanks to those who have paid already! The Newsletter and Metering Feasibility report summary included in the mailout also can be found here.

Please note that the Metering Report was created after requests from residents at the last AGM. There are no plans to proceed with changing from flat rates to meters for residents. If there is continued interest in switching to meters, we will hold special public meetings and have discussions to ensure that any change to residential metering is done only if a majority of residents agree to the change.

Winter Water Usage

Winter Water Usage

We have seen huge decreases in water usage this year with repairs and replacement of leaky lines and water mains.

Winter usually brings an increase in water usage as some residents keep water running to avoid freezing of water lines. If you need to do this, remember that the faucet needs to be open only a very small amount; just enough to keep the water moving.

We encourage you to insulate your water lines to avoid needing to run water. Ways to do this yourself are on our new Winter page.
