The Villages Department of Public Safety is proud of the municipal water system that enables us
to provide the service that might be needed in the event of fire emergency. The Department
is active with checking the water flow and maintaining the hydrant system including marking the
hydrant with a blue reflective marker in the roadway for easy visibility. This activity is
biannual and has been very effective, we are able to identify concerns and have them addressed
quickly. The Department is asking that all homeowners maintain 3’ of clearance on all sides
so the hydrants can be identified quickly.
