About the Avon Lake Board of Municipal Utilities

Avon Lake Regional Water is governed by an independent body, the Avon Lake Board of Municipal Utilities (the Board), elected by the residents of Avon Lake. The Board has five members, which serve four-year terms.

The Board establishes policy and oversees the utility’s operations. The Board appoints the Chief Utilities Executive and Chief of Utility Operations, who are responsible for management and operations. The utility manages its own personnel and is directly responsible to the residents of Avon Lake for water and wastewater service. While they function independently of Avon Lake’s city government, Board members meet regularly with City Officials and cooperate on major projects.

Regulations were adopted by the Board, December 3, 2007, and most recently revised January 16, 2019. Click here to review the Avon Lake Regional Water regulations.

The Board meets twice a month (the first and third Tuesday), except during summer recess in July and August, when the second meetings in July and August, do not take place. Regular meeting times and dates are posted on our website calendar and open to the public.
