Summer Sprinkle Rates End September 15

St. John's summer sprinkle sewer rates end Tuesday, September 15. After that date, residents will be charged the full sewer rate, while households with a second meter for outside watering are excluded from the change. The town advises residents to stop outside watering after September 15 to avoid a larger-than-average water bill on November 1. Questions about the summer rates can be directed to the town at 219-365-4800. Sprinkler backflow valves also must be tested annually.
