Summary

Crown Point City said it has secured $5,000,000 in state funds for the first phase of its lead service-line replacement program; inspections and replacements of lead lines from meter pit to house will be performed at no charge to affected homeowners.

Mayor Pete told residents the city is in the final phase of its lead line replacement program targeting older homes, and the state has set aside $5,000,000 for the first phase. The program inspects service lines from the meter pit to the house and replaces lead lines where identified — at no cost to homeowners.

"This is a program that's no cost to the homeowner," Mayor Pete said, adding the city will inspect lines and pursue grant funding for additional phases once the city has more precise counts of affected homes. He told homeowners that the program is voluntary and that the city will perform door-hanger and in-person notifications to reach affected properties.

In response to resident questions, the mayor said roughly 35% of contacted homes in the first phase have completed replacement or inspection to date, and that some homes built before 1987 are not affected.
