MUNICIPAL CLASS ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT (MCEA)
The Township is undertaking a Schedule B Municipal class Environmental Assessment to address the problem of how the Township can provide water supply and fire protection to meet the future demands of growth in the village of Mansfield. The MCEA will identify and evaluate as necessary the related system components, including well supply, treatment, storage, and pumping systems as well as the water distribution system.
The Public Information Centre for the Mansfield Water Supply and Storage schedule B MCEA was held in December 2024 with a follow-up report expected in Spring 2025.
TOWNSHIP'S RESPONSIBILITY VERSUS HOMEOWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY
The Township is responsible for the public portion of the water distribution system running from the watermain to the municipal property line. Beyond the property line is the private portion of the system and is the responsibility of the homeowner.
WATER CONSERVATION TIPS
WATER METER
The Township will work with our meters supplier or internal staff to repair water meters under warranty. The Township will contact the resident or business to book an appointment to make repairs required from inside the property. Sometimes repairs may also be done on the exterior of the property without an appointment.
FIRE HYDRANTS
The Township is responsible for the maintenance and operation of fire hydrants - which play a critical role in the Township's water infrastructure.
In an emergency, every second matters. Blocked, concealed, or difficult-to-access fire hydrants can impede emergency fire response. Please ensure that hydrants are visible and unobstructed at all times including winter months when a 1m radius of snow and ice around the hydrant can be cleared.
Hydrants can only be operated by Township staff or their designated contractor. Any unauthorized use of fire hydrants is considered water theft and may result in by-law enforcement. To report a leak, or illegal connections contact the Township office at 705-466-3341.
