Water Meter Reading Program
Council advises residents that Council and/or its appointed water meter reading officer will soon begin reading water meters throughout the region for the half year period ending 31 December 2024.
This will apply to all premises connected to the water supply schemes in Blackbutt, Boondooma, Kingaroy, Kumbia, Murgon, Nanango, Proston, Proston Rural, Tingoora, Wondai and Wooroolin for the purpose of recording water meter readings.
The water meter reading program will commence on Monday 7 October 2024 and is expected to continue until Tuesday 24 December 2024 and will be conducted between the hours of 6.00am and 6.00pm daily.
The water meter reading program collects information for the billing of water consumption that will be included on the 6 monthly rate notices to be issued in February 2025.
Meter reading personnel may be required to enter properties to gain access to and read the water meters. It is a requirement of our water meter reading personnel that soil or other material that is removed from any meter box to record a reading is returned to the meter box. This prevents drains from being blocked or ratepayer lawns being damaged by anything removed from the meter box.
For the safety of meter reading personnel, please ensure that your animals are enclosed within your property and check that garden vegetation does not obstruct access to your water meter.
More details about the billing of water consumption and other useful information can be found here.
