The City of Summerville has launched a new Water Bill Protection Plan designed to help residents avoid unexpected spikes in their water bills caused by major leaks.

City Manager Jason Winters said the city has occasionally received complaints about unusually high water bills caused by leaks that went undetected for several days. The new program is intended to provide a safety net for customers in those situations while still encouraging residents to monitor their water usage.

Officials say the protection plan is designed to help cover situations where a major leak runs for several days before being discovered, which can cause water usage to increase dramatically. City leaders note that similar programs are offered in many other cities and say the plan is meant to provide peace of mind for residents while helping protect them from extremely high utility bills.

The Town of Trion will shut off water service to part of town Friday morning as crews work to repair a water line.

Town officials say beginning Friday, February 20th at 9:30 a.m., water will be turned off for customers from the Chattooga River southward to Moore Street. Trion Maintenance Superintendent Brandon Croy said service will remain off in that area until the repair is completed.

Residents and businesses in the affected area are encouraged to plan ahead, store water for essential needs, and limit water usage before the shutoff begins. Once service is restored, customers may notice temporary discoloration or air in the lines, which typically clears after running water for a short time.
