There are approximately 305 ¾” service connections, six (6) 1” service connections, three (3) 1.5” service connections, two (2) 2” service connections, and one (1) 3” service connection.

Other additive bid items include hand-held radio reading meters and equipment, vehicle-based radio reading meters and equipment, fixed-base radio reading meters and equipment, and water billing software.
