As hunting season is underway, we kindly remind everyone not to dispose of deer carcasses in recycling bins or dumpsters. Deer remains should be properly managed and disposed of in designated waste disposal areas.

They are accepted at our Resource Recovery Park for drop-off only, fees applicable.

Thank you for keeping our recycling stream clean!

WHAT IS A WATER SERVICE LATERAL?
The water service lateral is the pipe that provides water from the water main in the street to a home or business. A typical water service lateral includes a tap at the main, a length of pipe to a location at or near the street right-of-way line, a curb stop and box, and another length of pipe into the building being served.

WHAT IS A CURB STOP BOX?
The curb stop is a valve that allows the service to be turned on or off by a Village employee. It is located near the street right-of-way line. Since the curb stop
itself and all the lateral pipe is buried in the ground the only evidence of where the curb stop is located is the cover of the curb “box”.

WHAT IS A SANITARY SEWER LATERAL?
The sewer lateral is the privately owned service sewer pipe connecting the building and the sewers of the Village. The property owner or customer owns and maintains the sanitary sewer service lateral all the way from the building to the main within the street. Unlike water laterals where a clear distinction of ownership can be achieved at the curb box located near the property line, no similar physical feature is present on a sewer lateral.

CAN I RUN MY SUMP PUMP LINE TO THE SEWER LATERAL?
NO person shall make connection of roof downspouts, exterior foundation drains, areaway drains, basement sump pump or other sources of surface runoff or groundwater to a building sewer or building drain that in turn is connected directly or indirectly to a sanitary sewer. If such connections are found correction shall
be ordered.
