Community Notice:💧You may notice a PipeEye truck in community today and tomorrow, cleaning and inspecting the sewer and storm water systems. This is regular maintenance to protect our infrastructure and ensure that we provide continuous quality service to our members and residents. They will be flushing and using CCTV cameras to inspect the sewers and storm drains, and cleaning and inspecting the manholes.

Please drive slowly, watch for people on the road and we recommend closing toilet bowl lids to prevent accidental overflow due to sudden pressure.
