The city of Genoa is creating an inventory of residential water service lines in an effort to identify how many are lined with lead and need to be replaced.

Alyssa Seguss, Genoa city administrator said the city is still in the inventory stage, working to determine how many and where the lead service lines are throughout Genoa.

Residents should be on alert for a potential visit from the Genoa Public Works Department, who’s staff is going door to door to examine lines servicing area homes.

According to a Tuesday Facebook post by the city of Genoa, Public Works employees will have ID badges, drive a city vehicle and wear a city of Genoa Public Works uniform. The social media post also stated that residents can call to verify the person knocking.
