City reports 539 service-line plans, 47 covered repairs and $74,922 in estimated savings for participants
Summary
City Manager Michael Johnson summarized the city’s service-line warranty program: 539 plans in effect, 47 covered repairs averaging $1,594, approximately $74,922 saved collectively, and coverage up to $8,500 per repair.
City Manager Michael Johnson updated council on the municipal service-line warranty program, which provides residents coverage for water and sewer service-line repairs.
Johnson said the program currently has 539 sewer plans in effect and that 47 covered repairs have been completed with an average repair cost of $1,594. He said program participants have collectively recognized about $74,922 in savings so far and noted the program covers repairs up to $8,500 per claim.
Johnson encouraged residents to review recent mailings about the program and consider enrollment because some repairs can be costly without coverage. Council did not take further action on the program at the meeting but acknowledged the program’s role in reducing out-of-pocket costs for residents.
