Garden City residents may receive letters about a subscription based service line protection program from Service Line Warranties of America SLWA to cover repair costs for water and sewer lines. The city will not operate the program and participation is optional. Monthly fees range from 4 to 6 for water and 5 to 8 for sewer with coverage up to 4000 per repair. Local licensed plumbers will be used for work. The city notes homeowners are generally responsible for lines from the curb to the home.
