Municipal Water Services

The Villages of Eden and Kelwood have municipal waterlines to the residences.  Water rates are set in accordance with the Public Utilities Board.

Please be aware that water meters in you house must be accessible to authorized employees at all times to be examined, read, inspected or, if necessary, repaired or replaced.  The meter shall not be enclosed and the area around should be kept free and clear of any obstructions.  They cannot be buried, blocked or damaged.  Water meters must be kept warm at all times.  If they freeze they will crack and explode, which you will be responsible for paying for a replacement and the clean up.  If a meter is damaged by frost, tampering, neglect or from any other cause, the replacement/repair of the meter and all other charges are the homeowners responsibility.

A current water project extended a waterline from the Town of Neepawa to Eden with hook-ups of some rural residences.
