Water meter connections and disconnections
To connect or disconnect a water meter to a residential or commercial property, you will need to lodge an application.
If you are applying for a commercial water meter connection, please include a copy of the Council approved hydraulic plans. Lot numbers and all boundary pegs need to be clearly visible on the property before water meters are installed.
In some cases you will need to install a conduit by under-road boring.
