Levan council approves metered water fill for livestock and emergency use
Summary
The Levan Town Council approved installation of a metered, locked water fill near the cemetery/park to let residents and contractors haul water; town staff will set rates and key access procedures.
The Levan Town Council voted to move forward with installing a metered, locked water fill that residents and contractors can use to haul water for livestock and other needs.
Council members described the proposed fill as a keyed, metered connection located near the cemetery/park that would allow users to draw a measured amount of water and pay the town for usage. Council members said the connection could also speed refilling of the town fire department’s water truck when needed.
Council discussion covered logistics: a locking mechanism and metering to prevent unmetered use, a design that drains to prevent freezing, and a fee structure to be developed by town staff. The council did not set rates at the meeting; staff will return with recommended charging and key-access procedures.
The council approved a motion to “move forward with the metered overhead water fill” and carry out the necessary steps to implement it.
