GENESEE COUNTY/Water Meter Replacement Project in the Town of Batavia

Press release

The Town of Batavia was awarded a $730,000 Green Innovation Grant from the New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation for a water meter replacement project that is underway throughout the Town of Batavia. This project will replace older water meters with new advanced metering infrastructure technology water meters which will increase water-use efficiency, reduce operational costs, and promote sustainable green infrastructure practices.

Residents and businesses with water meters that are required to be replaced received an initial letter detailing what to expect and how to schedule your water meter replacement appointment. A second letter will be sent to those that have not scheduled their appointment yet. The Town of Batavia asks those that do receive a second letter to schedule their appointment as soon as possible. 425 residents or businesses have scheduled their appointments, and 200 water meters have already been replaced. About 1000 residents and businesses still need to schedule their appointments.

The Town of Batavia Water Department has located water curb-stop boxes near the road with blue or white flags at the locations that require a water meter replacement. The Town kindly asks residents to leave the flags in place until the Town removes them. For more information on this project, please visit the Town of Batavia’s website, or contact the Town’s Water Department by calling 585-343-1729, then select option 5.”
