A little history is useful. In 1978, the Town of Dayton elected to provided wastewater to every residence through an inter-local agreement with the Lafayette Waterworks, an agency of the City of Lafayette. Twenty years later, in 1998, the Town of Dayton elected to expand the agreement with Lafayette to include water services. The agreement was needed, as more than half of the wells were pumping only discolored water for months. A few residents have maintained their wells for outside watering. All residences in Dayton are required to pay monthly fees for the five services listed.
Today, the modern system is maintained by a full-time employee who maintains pumping stations and hundreds of water meters.
In addition to utilities provided by the Town of Dayton, residents will need electric service. Some will also need gas service.
