The village supplying water to most of Seneca County says it may step back from running the system, according to the Finger Lakes Times.
Mayor Walter Bennett said the village supports the new county water authority and wants to explore contracts that shift control, billing, and maintenance away from Waterloo’s small staff. Right now, the village serves more customers outside its borders than within.
Officials say the move could ease strain on local taxpayers and help the authority grow into a countywide utility — but any changes are still years out.
