Developers/Subdivisions

The contractor building subdivision will install water mains and CCU’s portion of the water service lines, including water meter pits. Developers donate completed water mains, services, and pits to CCU at completion of project, so maintenance becomes CCU’s responsibility. View our Utility Standards.
