Utilities

The City of Wamego provides electric, water and sewer utilities to its residents. The city operates its own electric generating and distribution system, generating electricity as needed while purchasing power from  multiple sources. This allows the city to choose the least costly method of providing electricity and offers protection against regional power outage. A series of deep wells provides city water with a total pumping capacity of 1.8 million gallons per day. The city's wastewater treatment plant provides primary treatment for sanitary sewage.

To reach the city offices or report emergencies, contact the City of Wamego during business hours.
