Mayor Jurgensen is convening a committee to determine which outdoor exercise equipment to purchase and install. If you would like to be a part of this committee, contact City Hall or Mayor Jurgensen. Healthy Bourbon County Action Team has a plaemaking grant pledged to help us with this endeavor. Please go to their website or facebook page and fill out the Uniontown Placemaking Project Survey. Survey closes February 28.
Natural gas prices are still high and are forecasted to remain high through the winter months; however, they have come down some recently. The City of Uniontown is NOT considering a rate increase at this time.
The Environmental Protection Agency has revised the lead and copper regulations for drinking water. Due to the revision, the City of Uniontown will be required to provide an inventory of all water service lines from the main to the house. This includes your service line from the meter to the house. We sent out a survey/questionnaire with the January 26th billings, asking each property owner with water service what type of material is your service line. It would be helpful if you could take a picture of the pipe where it comes into the structure to help us better identify the type of material. We will also be asking what type of pipe material for your indoor plumbing. We realize that we asked this in 2017 but we didn't get responses from everyone and KDHE is asking again for that information. Thank you to those that have returned surveys. We ask everyone else to please fill out and return with your utility payment.
