In October, 2008 the City entered into a wholesale water supply agreement with the City of Portland. The agreement allows Sandy to obtain a minimum of 500,000 gallons per day up to a maximum of 3 million gallons per day from this source. This source supplements the Brownell Springs and Alder Creek sources which we still use.
Our community has outgrown our decades-old wastewater system, and we have been mandated by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to improve our infrastructure. The City of Sandy adopted a Wastewater System Facilities Plan in 2019, but the plan is currently being amended to better address Sandy's challenges.
The Public Works Department is responsible for operating and maintaining the water, sewer, stormwater and transportation systems within the city limits. Use this link to access the Public Works website for the City of Sandy.
