Water and sewer
Which pipes St. Louis Park owners look after
St. Louis Park's water and sewer page splits responsibility at clear points. A single-family homeowner owns the water service from the house out to the shutoff in the yard, usually in the right of way. The owner's sewer service runs from the house out to and including the connection to the main in the street.
For water or sewer emergencies, call public works at 952-924-2562 on weekdays from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. At other times the city directs callers to non-emergency police dispatch at 952-924-2618.
