SEWER BACK-UP
The City of Braham is committed to providing the highest quality sewer service to its customers.
From time to time, we experience a problem with the City sewer line which, if not detected early, can result in a backup of raw sewage into a residence. The City requests all residents to report any change in their sewer immediately.
Toilets flushing slowly or water coming up through a basement drain may be a sign of a sewer problem. A quick, friendly check by a City worker will determine if there is a problem in the City line.
The City also wants to remind residents not to flush diapers, towels and rags down the toilet, or dump grease down a drain.
It is important to know that the City’s insurance will not pay sewer backup damage claims if the City’s insurance adjuster determines that the City was not negligent. In most cases, this has been the outcome of claims, so it is important for residents to make sure they have sewer backup coverage included in their homeowner’s policy, especially for those with finished basements.
IRRIGATION METERS
The City is currently reworking how we manage irrigation meters. If you are interested in one, please contact kolson@brahammn.gov and we will add you to a list.
