Notice is hereby given that the Lake Meridian Water District Board of Commissioners will hold a public hearing on Thursday, December 11th, 2025, at the District office located at 27224 144th S.E., Kent, Washington at 10:00 a.m. or as soon thereafter as can be heard on the proposed adoption of revised District water service rates and charges. The public is invited to attend and address the Board of Commissioners regarding the proposed service rates and charges.

The first week in November the District began an additional treatment process at Well #9 to reduce the sulfur taste and odor from this source. We have been working on this project since 2018 with the Department of Health and a local engineering firm which specializes in water chemistry. Lake Meridian Water District is proud to say that there is a substantial reduction in the taste and odor from this source.

Many hours went into this project, and we call it a success. The District is thankful for our dedicated staff and some of the best water chemistry engineers in the world.

Lake Meridian Water District is a special purpose district, operating under Title 57 of the Revised Codes of Washington, (RCW).

We were originally formed in the early 1960s to bring water service to the Lake Meridian area. The District's current service area covers approximately 4,000 acres around Lake Meridian in Kent, Washington.

We are bordered by the City of Kent to the west; Soos Creek Water & Sewer to the north; Covington Water District to the east; and City of Auburn to the south.

The District has a three member Board of Commissioners elected to staggering six-year terms of office.

The Board meets twice per month at the District office. If you are interested in attending, please advise. The day to day operations are the responsibility of the General Manager, Operations Manager and 8 full time employees.
