Becoming a Member To be a member of the Westside Water Association, one must own property within the Westside Water District boundary. The Association serves over 200 households in an area west of Shingle Mill Creek and north of Bank Road. The association is administered by a volunteer board, which is elected from among the members at an annual meeting. Membership is limited to those members within the district who are in possession of a water share. We reevaluate every year to see if we can support more shares, unfortunately we are fully subscribed at this time, there are no new water shares are available. Water Share Sale Process Key items in the water share sales process: • $100 non-refundable application fee • Each applicant can apply for only one (1) share in any sales cycle • Any WWA member can buy only one (1) share every two (2) years (if shares are offered yearly). • Each application must be linked to a specific parcel. • If there are more applicants in any sales cycle than there are water shares available, the Board will hold a lottery drawing to determine who gets the opportunity to purchase a water share. • The lottery order does not carry over from year to year. When additional shares are released in the future, the entire application process starts over. • Per the WWA By-Laws, if an extension from the main line is needed for a new share, the shareholder is responsible for both the mainline extension and the connection costs. • The holder for a new water share is also responsible for obtaining an estimate for the cost of a mainline extension to their house.

Our Water System On this page, you'll discover details about how our water system operates, our management program, as well as water quality and sanitizing surveys. We're proud to showcase our water use efficiency and our well's approval. Thank you for choosing us as your water provider. Small Water System Management Program This plan supplants the previous Westside Water Comprehensive Plan of 1996. This plan should be considered a snapshot of Westside Water that reflects the capacity of the system as viewed against the primary considerations of Managerial, Technical and Financial aspects of the system. Water System Management Program 2020 Addendum to Program 2021 Water Quality Westside Water is required to comply with drinking water regulations specified by the state Department of Health. As with all water utilities, our information is in the public record. For a complete record of required testing results, please visit the following website: https://fortress.wa.gov/doh/eh/portal/odw/si/Intro.aspx Our system ID number is 94950. Because of ongoing issues with arsenic concentrations in the summer months, we continue to pursue new sources. Sanitary Survey The Washington State Department of Health performs a detailed inspection of our system every 5 years. The survey includes a system status report and recommendations for system improvements. The next one will take place in 2029. 2024 Westside Water Survey 2018 Westside Water Survey Water Use Efficiency (WUE) The State of Washington recently established the Municipal Water Law, part of which mandates a water use efficiency plan. Part of the plan requirement involves setting goals and monitoring the results. In 2012, the Westside Water Board set and met the goal of asking all shareholders to reduce their water consumption by ½ of 1%. On average, this amounts to a little less than one gallon per household per day. This reduction is easily accomplished by simple acts like shutting off the water tap while brushing teeth or turning off the shower briefly while you lather up with shampoo. Of course if you are planning to replace your toilet, please consider selecting a low water use one. Installing a low flow shower head is easy too and more than meets this goal. To continue to benefit, all shareholders are asked to use water efficiently and, especially, to check for and promptly respond to leaks. More information about the Water Use Efficiency Rule can be found here. Lead Service Line Inventory (LSLI) Westside Water Association is required by the EPA to complete and submit a Lead Service Line Inventory (LSLI) to the State and make the inventory publicly accessible. The purpose of this inventory is to identify lead or old galvanized service lines in the system. Explore the document below to get more information on individual service line material.
