City Company to offer water and sewer line protection plan
Muirhead outlined a program by SLWA offering service line protection covering repairs or replacement if a line breaks or leaks. Costs vary from hundreds to thousands, depending on line type and site factors. The plan excludes meters, branch lines, pools, septic systems, and inside the home, with a 4000 dollar per incident cap and one year warranty. Local revenue shares go to the city, which has not decided how to use the funds. SLWA operates nationwide with presence in 45 states and several Kansas cities including Dodge City.
