Press release from the Village of Lisle:

Posted on: July 17, 2020

The Village recently contracted with Baxter & Woodman Inc. to perform a water system needs assessment and water rate analysis. This work is being conducted to develop a ten year capital improvement program and water and sewer rate structures that will support the system into the future.

On March 2, 2020, Baxter & Woodman presented the Village’s future water system capital needs. The $9,000,000, 10-year, Water System Capital Improvement Plan includes the construction of 17,400 linear feet of water main, pump station improvements, rehabilitation of emergency back-up wells, water system modeling and advancements to water metering.

Based upon this plan, Baxter & Woodman performed an analysis of the Village’s water rates with the goal of developing water rate recommendations that sustainably finance recommended Water System Capital Improvements, maintenance, and operation into the future. This analysis will be considered during the Committee of the Whole to be held after the 7:00 p.m. Village Board meeting on Monday, July 20th. The public is welcome and encouraged to attend.
