INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. – Because of an onslaught of waterline leaks, the Incline Village General Improvement District unanimously approved augmenting the operating budget with $300,000 from the Utility Reserve Fund to pay for future water main repairs Wednesday night.
For fiscal year 2023-2024, the appropriated amount was $190,000. After paying for five water main leaks, there was $20,000 left in the account, said Kate Nelson, Interim Public Works Director.
In fall 2023 in the Nevada State Route 28 right-of-way, Q & D Construction repaired a water main leak. The repair cost $40,175.55.
