Wells City mandates severing private wells from city supply
Clare voters must disconnect any private water wells from the city system after the City Commission approved an ordinance citing health risks from interconnections. The measure requires backflow prevention devices in fire hydrants and follows a Michigan Health ruling. The city also announces a $46,050 federal grant for wastewater planning, with a year expected to complete the study and a separate note on a denied $300,000 downtown grant.
