The City of Elyria has purchased an impressive F-750 Medium Duty truck to assist our Water Distribution Department in the facilitation of keeping the water flowing to our homes and businesses. This truck will continue to help the City do work in-house that would otherwise have to be contracted to outside parties, and it serves as a great source of pride that we were able to support our local economy and purchase such a quality product locally.
The Water Distribution Department, under the leadership of manager Dave Rothgery, works with the Engineering, Utilities, Street and other City departments to maintain the pipes and equipment that delivers water to the entire City of Elyria, including maintenance and testing of all fire hydrants in the City and emergency water-main repairs in the freezing cold of winter.
