1. At the time of sign up for water
service by the Customer, The District will require the Customer
to provide a Property Tax Card and Tax Map to insure they are
eligible for water service as provided in the District’s Policy
and Rules and Regulations.
2. Once the Customer has met the eligibility requirements for
water service, they will be required to pay all necessary fees,
complete a Water Service Contract and Cross-Connection Control
Survey. This Survey will determine what requirements will be
necessary for the Customer to comply with the District’s
Cross-Connection Policy. A violation of the District’s
Cross-Connection Policy includes having the District’s water
supply connected to an auxiliary water supply (well) or anything
potentially harmful that could backflow into the District’s
water system. If this condition does exist or will exist in the
future, the District requires proper back-flow prevention.
3. Once the Customer has completed all the necessary steps to
sign up for water service, the District will provide the
Customer with a blue stake with their name on one side and a
Service Order number on the other side. The Customer will place
this stake on their property line in a location that is mutually
agreeable to both the Customer and the District.

will inspect the Customers plumbing arrangements for any
cross-connection problems/ violations. This inspection will be
based upon the Cross-Connection Control Survey completed
previously by the Customer and Customer Type as noted on the
Customer’s Water Service Contract. Any cross-connection
violation will require proper backflow prevention by the
Customer.
