Attention District CustomersAs of September 13, 2019, the Adams Fire District
was served with a lawsuit, which challenged the way the District bills Street Lighting and Fire Protection as a fee, rather than as a tax. The lawsuit is still in the process. At some point in the future, the Town of Adams may be collecting for these services as a separate line item on your property tax bill, in addition to Town taxes. The lawsuit could have an impact on the District’s rate, at this time it is unknown. The Prudential Committee is working diligently with the District Customers’ best interests at heart. Please monitor this website for updates. January 12, 2022 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meter Replacements
Adams Fire District would like to inform the District’s residents that the Water Department will be replacing water meters. If you have any questions, please call the District Superintendent @ 743-0978 ext.13.

Carbon Water FiltersAs per MassDEP Rules and Regulations, the District adds chlorine to the water system to provide protection against disease-causing pathogens; such as bacteria, viruses, and protozoans, that commonly grow in water supply reservoirs, on the walls of water mains and in storage tanks. Chlorine will be added to our system year-round, on a permanent basis.
Chlorine can be removed from the water used in your home by installing a whole house carbon water filter. These filters can be purchased at most hardware stores, including the local Walmart. Contact the District Superintendent at (413) 743-0978 ext.13 with any questions regarding this matter. July 18, 2019 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
