Today, employees who have participated in the City's Leadership Program had the opportunity to tour the Water Utility's Water Boosting Pumping Station. This station was built as part of the Lake Michigan Water Project. It was a great opportunity to learn more about the City's water system and connect with co-workers from other Departments. #Waukesha #WaukeshaTeam #Leadership

It's National Fix a Leak Week. Did you know? Toilet leaks tend to be invisible and are one of the most common leaks. When toilets leak, hundreds of gallons of water a day can be wasted without your knowledge. To identify silent toilet leaks, the Water Utility recommends doing a dye test - put 8-10 drops of food coloring into the tank and wait 20 minutes. If color appears in the bowl before flushing, there is a leak. If you need to replace your toilet or shower head, you could qualify for a $100 toilet rebate or $25 shower head rebate.
