With Derby’s continued development – especially residentially – the city has run into consistent issues in regards to the transfer of water service territory, most often with Sedgwick County Rural Water District 3 (RWD3). To help alleviate some of the common challenges, City Manager Kiel Mangus brought forward a universal water service territory transfer agreement for the Derby City Council to consider at its July 25 meeting. RWD3 had previously approved the agreement at a July 11 meeting, and the Derby City Council followed suit. Mangus reported that staff has been working toward such an agreement since he has been with the city and Derby’s growth to the north and east has expedited the need.
