General Ordinance 10, 2026 — Groundwater Usage Restrictions

The ordinance bans new private water wells and requires existing ones to close within 365 days in areas the state (IDEM) has identified with historic groundwater contamination. City staff told the council that a records check found no sewer customer in the affected area relying solely on well water for household use.
