How to Participate
The City of Evanston has identified homes that are eligible to participate in the 2022 Lead Service Line Replacement Pilot Project. These homes are located on blocks where the water main has previously been replaced and are within a low-to-moderate income area. If your home is eligible, you will receive a notice in the mail guiding you to sign and return a Right-of-Entry (ROE) form. The first step for participating in the replacement process is for homeowners to sign the ROE form. Learn about the ROE form.
