Sewer and water connections
We provide water and sewer services in most towns and villages across the Clarence Valley.
Water connection
Before applying, call Council on 02 6643 0200 to check if standard fees apply. It's important to check this as some properties require additional Contribution to Capital payments in order to connect.
