FACILITIES FEE NOTICE TO CUSTOMERS

---

The College Park Water and Sanitation District (“District”) is committed to maintaining reliable and efficient wastewater services for our community. In order to do so, the District must invest in critical sanitary sewer infrastructure improvements including but not limited to the Northwest Lakewood Sanitation District interceptor mainline, which the District is contractually obligated to financially participate in. To help fund such improvements, the District will be increasing the annual sanitary service fee from $120 to $150 beginning in 2026.

  Over the next four years, the District will replace and upsize components of its collection system, including contributing to the replacement and upsizing of the Northwest Lakewood interceptor mainline, to meet current and future system capacity demands. The total cost of these improvements is estimated to be between $3 million and $5 million. 

The District’s engineers have worked to overcome design challenges related to crossing the Rocky Mountain Ditch west of Maple Grove Reservoir but were able to receive design approval and advertised the project for bids in late February. The District is waiting for Northwest Lakewood Sanitation District to award the contract. The District will continue to provide updates as new project milestones are reached.

  Annual Maintenance Program:

The District has an annual maintenance program that consists of jetting and televising the District’s sanitary sewer mains on a rotating schedule. The District is segregated into three maintenance zones, Zones A, B, and C. For the 2026 calendar year, the District will be performing high-pressure cleaning and camera inspections of approximately 35,000 linear feet of sewer pipe located in Zone B of the District. To view a map of the maintenance zones and maintenance schedule, please visit the Maintenance and Repairs page on the District’s website https://cpwsd.org/maintenance-and-repairs.

Following the cleaning and televising process, our operators and engineers will review the televising to evaluate the internal condition of the pipes. This proactive inspection allows us to identify and schedule necessary repairs for root intrusions, structural cracks, or other defects before they lead to service interruptions or emergency failures.
