The Utilities department manages the utilities provided by the City of Edgerton to residents and businesses, and their associated infrastructure. The City of Edgerton provides sewer services and water services to its residents and businesses.

Where does Edgerton source its water?
The City of Edgerton purchases water through partnerships with Johnson County Rural Water District 7, Miami County Rural Water District 2 and Baldwin City. The majority of our water is sourced from Hillsdale Reservoir.
Safety is top priority!
Water professionals – from engineers designing infrastructure to operators monitoring treatment plants around the clock – work to ensure the water is safe to drink and readily available. Water systems are required to regularly sample and test the water for different contaminants to verify the water they are serving to the public meets all federal and state standards. These water samples must be analyzed by a state-approved laboratory and the results must be reported to the State of Kansas. You can read Edgerton's water quality report in our Consumer Confidence Report at the bottom of this page.
