Political Factoid

Aging infrastructure:
Closer to home than most people realize
  • Cast iron sewer pipes
    last only 25 to 30 years
     
  • Clay sewer pipes last
    only 70 to 80 years
     
  • Black plastic water pipes*
    last only about 40 years.
Not covered by the city, nor the utility,
nor your homeowner's insurance.
