Water Department

The Water Department has three full time employees who are responsible for maintaining the Town water treatment facility, multiple wells, the Town upper and lower reservoirs - a limited surface water supply - and the water distribution system.

The water department repairs water main leaks, hydrant repairs, and will assist home owners when they have water issues, such as frozen pipes. Staff also assists the Roads and Parks department when necessary.

Note that sewer is managed by a separate entity, Palmer Lake Sanitation District, located at 120 Middle Glenway, 719-481-2732, found online here: http://plsd.org/
