IMPORTANT NOTICE
Please make sure there are no impediments at, near or around your street water shut-off (curb stop). The district policy is a 5′-radius minimum. If we need to shut your water off in the event of an emergency, or for any other reason, and cannot reach the shut-off or put our wrench on it, you may sustain further damage. If you are not sure where your shut-off is, we will be happy to locate it for you at no charge.
