POST 911

We still seem to be in chaos all over the world.  After the Twin Towers Episode our troops were sent to Afghanistan, Iraq and now Liberia.  These are some of the hottest spots today when it comes to terrorism and civil unrest.  The term “FREEDOM” has changed forever when used in conjunction with the United States of America. You may ask yourself what this has to do with Lansing Township’s West Side Water System?  The Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has mandated that all public water systems have in place a Vulnerability Assessment Study {VA’s).  Based on population served, Lansing Township’s Water system must have a completed study by June 2004.  Currently, management is well underway to meet the criteria specified by the Federal Government.
 

Fire Hydrant Fee Increase

West Side Water monthly readiness to serve charges will increase $1.24 per billing period beginning with the February 2006 water bill. This increase was necessary to offset the decrease in revenue from fire hydrant  rental fees that  Lansing Township paid to West Side Water annually from the General Fund.

 Annual charges for  Private Fire hydrant and Fire suppression systems will increase From $150.00 to $200.00 for 2006  $250.00 for 2007 and $300.00 for 2008.
