Twin City Water and Sewer District

• The district treated 329,095,000 gallons in 2025 - about 0.9 million gallons a day from wells rated at 2.25 million gallons a day, leaving roughly half its pumping capacity in reserve.
• The district publishes almost nothing online: its entire public document library is a lead and copper inventory spreadsheet and one sanitary sewer overflow report. Even its water rates are not posted anywhere.
