About Us

Our District was start in the middles of the 1970's by very dedicated residents of the Tri-Lakes area, headed by Cliff Creason. This group of individuals devoted many long and tedious hours to getting a centralized sewer system to serve the Tri-Lakes and Crooked Lake areas. The first customers went on line in 1993. The second phase came in with the construction of Northern Heights Elementary School in 1999. This phase included the lake areas of Big Lake, Loon Lake, New Lake, Old Lake and Goose Lake in 2001. District wide we serve just over 1800 customers.

The District is governed by a seven-member Board of Trustees. These seven people are officially appointed by Township Trustees: In Whitley County - one member from Etna-Troy Township, one member from Smith Township, and three members from Thorncreek Township. In Noble County - two members from Noble Township. Each member serving four-year term.

The Board normally meets on the second Monday of each month. As required, the monthly meeting is advertised in the Columbia City paper at the end of December for the following year. Special meetings, meeting cancellations or rescheduled meetings are posted in paper as needed. Notices of all Board activity are also posted in the District office.
