Good Afternoon, Sparta!
We are excited to share that My Water Advisor 2.0 is now available for you to create an account and monitor your water usage.

With this app, you can:
*Set personal alerts for high water usage
*Create budget alerts to help avoid unexpected high bills at the end of the month
*Enter vacation dates and receive notifications of any unusual or unauthorized water use while you are away
*Gain a better understanding of how much water is used for everyday activities like gardening, pressure washing, laundry, and more

Please Note:
If you create an account and set personal alerts, only you will receive these notifications—Town Hall will not be notified.
Town Hall is only alerted to potential leaks when there is continuous water usage over a 24-hour period.
