City of Monroe Request to Provide Water Service

body

INFORMATION CONTACT: 

John Shutak, Union County Water, Engineering Director, 704-283-3651

ACTION REQUESTED:

Approve the request from the City of Monroe to provide water service to three lots located on White Store Rd. (parcels 09125039, 09125040, 09125041).

PRIOR BOARD ACTIONS:

None.

BACKGROUND:

Better Path Homes has made a request to the City of Monroe Water Resources Department for water services at properties (09125039, 09125040, 09125041) located along White Store Rd., Monroe, NC. The City of Monroe has a water main located along White Store Rd. to serve the property. The closest County water main is located approximately 1.5 miles away along Summerlin Dairy Rd.

 

The City of Monroe has indicated that they are prepared to provide Better Path Homes water service connections, as an outside City customer, if approval is granted from Union County. Our water and sewer service agreement with the City of Monroe prohibits the City from providing service outside the City limits without the expressed, written approval of the Board of County Commissioners.

 

Union County Water has no objection to the City providing water service to this customer. 

FINANCIAL IMPACT: 

None.
