Water meter swap-outs to begin in early December

by | Nov 26, 2020 | Latest

Water meter swap-out will start soon in Murphy, City Man­ager Mike Castro told the Mur­phy City Council at its Tuesday meeting, with 2,000 of 6,300 meters to be done.

The process begins Dec. 7. The meters to be swapped in­clude just the 2,000 at this time, and the process will take eight to 10 weeks, the city said.

“Specific meters will be cho­sen by the meter’s age and the meter’s consumption, with pri­ority given to old meters and meters with high consumption,” Castro said in his city manager report. “People whose meters are to be swapped out will be sent a postcard giving them de­tails.”

The city website also pro­vides additional information on the swap-out and the process it­self, Castro said.
