TAMARAC ANNOUNCES CITYWIDE WATER METER UPGRADE TO ENHANCE SERVICE AND MODERNIZE INFRASTRUCTURE

The City of Tamarac Water Meter Upgrade Initiative is Underway The City of Tamarac has launched a citywide water meter upgrade initiative to replace all existing water meters with advanced smart technology. This project, which began on April 28, 2025, will continue through the end of the year.

The new smart meters provide more reliable service and accurate water usage measurements.

These self-service tools also allow users to monitor their accounts, receive real-time alerts about potential leaks, and take proactive steps to reduce waste and lower costs.

In addition to improved customer service and operational efficiency, the smart meter technology supports water conservation by identifying ways to reduce consumption and protect our shared water resources.
