How much does it cost to tie into the water system?

The owner must pay for the cost of connecting to the water supply system. It is the customer's responsibility to hire a City of Rochester-licensed water contractor to install the service connection.  The Department of Public Works must approve all materials, inspect the installation, provide and install the meter and its remote sensor and associated wiring.  There is a $50 fee for inspections to be submitted with the application for a water service connection/extension.
