We need your help completing the Cross Connection survey!  Our goal is to have 100% of this survey completed as soon as possible!

Cross-Connection Survey

The State and EPA requires every home to evaluate for cross connection/backflow possibilities. This is done by completing the cross-connection survey that is being sent out by City Hall.

Cross connection contamination can happen when the water mains pressure is less than the connection and the flow can be reversed, introducing a contaminant to the public water system. Examples are sprinkler systems, boilers, pools etc. This survey allows a review of all connections to better protect our public water against back flow. 

Please complete this survey as soon as possible to help protect your water source!  Questions?  Reach out to Mike Adair, Region Manager with PeopleService 402-677-3781

Per Ordinance 828:

If a customer experienced a water leak during December 2025, January 2026, or February 2026 that resulted in unusually high water usage, they may be eligible to appeal their sewer rate. Appeals must be submitted within 60 days of the May billing and must include proof of repair.

Sewer Consumption Appeal

The final deadline to submit an appeal is June 30, 2026.

The City Administrator, Utility Clerk, and an appointed Council member will meet with the customer to review the usage history. If approved, the adjusted sewer rate will be based on either the prior year’s rate or the average rate for a household of similar size—whichever is lower. The customer will be notified of the decision in writing, and any approved rate adjustment will take effect in the next billing cycle.

In accordance with Valley Municipal Code, Section 52-053 the City of Valley has issued a water conservation warning. The heightened demand is placing excessive strain on the city’s water supply system and increases the potential for temporarily discolored water due to pressure surges.  This is in effect from May 1st - September 30th!

ALL City of Valley water customers are urged to adhere to the below schedule for outdoor watering.

• Addresses ending in an odd number (1, 3, 5, 7, 9): Water only on Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday
• Addresses ending in an even number (0, 2, 4, 6, 8): Water only on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday

This morning, Mayor Linda Lewis assisted the kids at DC West in planting a tree in honor of Arbor Day.  Attached is also a video of their Arbor Day song!

• The City of Valley is moving forward with the Champion Shores development on the north side of Valley St - across from Flatwater. It will be a NON-TIF gated residential development.

• The City Council approved to keep the pool in the park. The city is looking at different ways to finance the project but we need community involvement. Stay tuned to how you can help!

• In 2026 the city will be replacing watermains in the following locations: W. Alexander St, W. Charles St, W. Whittingham St, W. Waring St, Reichmuth Rd (by Casey’s). The city is working on an aggressive strategic plan to replace additional watermains and lines in the next 3-5 years.

• The City is moving forward to implement a new finance and utility software system. This software will streamline many processes for the city and residents.
