Reminder NO signage, political, garage sale, or otherwise are permitted to be placed in the City right-of-way or State right-of-way. If there is a sidewalk, the signs must be placed on the side of the sidewalk closest to the home/business. If no sidewalk on the property, a good rule of thumb is to make sure signs are at least 12 feet from the road pavement.

See Chapter 165 Article 17 Section 4 of the City Code for more information.

Per Federal EPA and Iowa DNR regulations, the City of Hampton is required to do a drinking water service line inventory survey throughout the community to determine water service line material such as copper, plastic, lead, galvanized or other. The city does have some data on many of the properties, however, there are some properties that we have limited data on. In order to comply with the EPA/DNR requirements, we are required to compile water service line material data on all properties. The EPA/DNR goal is to locate, identify and eliminate any known lead pipe material through this survey.

Soon, the City may be reaching out to residents to schedule a time to enter their property to complete the service line visual inspection. You may receive a phone call, visit or a door hanger, from the city water staff to arrange times.

If you do not receive a request for an inspection, the City likely has record of your water service line on file. If you believe you have a lead service line, the City requests that you contact them for an inspection.

Thank you for your cooperation. Contact City Water Department for further information regarding the lead service line survey at 641-456-2124.
