Water Department

The Lake Odessa Water Department is located in the Page Building at 839 Fourth Avenue in Lake Odessa.  Water is billed quarterly with bills mailed in January, April, July and October.  Due dates for water bills are January 31, April 30, July 31 and October 31. Water usage is billed per thousand gallons of water used and is shown as WA on your bill. 

If you do not receive a bill, please call the water department at 616-374-7110 ext. 0.  If payment is not received by the shut-off date printed on the bill, an additional $40.00 non-payment turn on / turn off fee will be added to the account which is required to be paid prior to turning your water back on. 

If you need to schedule a turn on or a turn off, contact the water department at 616-374-7110 ext. 0.  There is a $10.00 fee for a turn off and a $10.00 fee for turn on.   Please call the water department at 616-374-7110 for questions regarding water connections, tap-ins, or meter readings.  

The Village accepts many forms of payment for water bills -- cash, check, and credit/ debit card are all accepted. Another form of payment is a scheduled ACH payment. 

If you are having an issue paying your bill, the Village/ Lakewood Wastewater Authority will work with customers to setup a payment plan. Please note that certain conditions apply. Please find below an application for a payment plan. For more information, please contact us at (616) 374-7110, ext 0.

 

Village/ Customer Water Responsibilities

The Village of Lake Odessa assumes responsibility of the water service to your home from the side of the curb stop to the water main.  The Village DPW maintains this area of the service and will make repairs as necessary.  However, any issues that occur between the house and the house side of the curb stop box are the responsibility of the homeowner. 

The Village also owns the water meter and should not be tampered with.  If the meter is leaking, please call the Village office at 616-374-7110 and we will coordinate a repair.
