MANTECA NEEDS TO WORK ON AGING WATER & SEWER
Sewer lines have neared collapse; some water lines 70 years & older; last rate increases were in 2009
sewer work
This Bulletin file photo shows a temporary wastewater line is in the middle of Union Road while the pipe that was put in place 20 feet below more than a half century ago was relined in mid-2018 to extend its useful life for at least another 50 years.
It’s been 13 years since Manteca last raised sewer and water rates. While that may have made users happy to not have to see a rate increase since 2009, it has come at a cost.
