Carey Council Approves Meter Reader Upgrade

11/20/18 – 7:26 A.M.

Carey is moving forward with plans to install an automated system to read electric and water meters. Council voted Monday to sign a contract with American Municipal Power to install the equipment.

The village will replace 1,450 water meters and around 1,950 electric meters.

The meters will connect to the utility office for automatic readings. It should take around 120 days to install the new equipment.
