City of Mayville Sump Pump Regulations
- Sump pump discharge may flow naturally to the nearest storm sewer inlet or it may flow through underground pipes to the inlets. Sump pumps can also be discharged directly into your yard.
- Do not discharge your sump pump into window wells. This will cause the water to circulate back into your home, causing damage. Use downspouts to send rainwater away from your foundation. Slope your yard so rainwater does not flow toward your home. Taking these steps will greatly reduce the amount of water that runs through your sump pump system.
- Please do not connect your sump pump to the sanitary sewer system. If sump pumps are connected and pumped into the sanitary sewer system, they could overwhelm the system and flood basements during heavy rains and snow melts. Sump pumps connected to the sanitary sewer system will also cause higher pumping costs for the City.
City of Mayville regulations require that your sump pump discharge into your yard or a storm sewer, not into the sanitary sewer system.
Calendar note: The City of Mayville will test the emergency siren at Noon on the First Monday of every month.
