Review and Discuss NCTCOG Interlocal Marketing Agreement With Utility Service Partners Private Label, Inc., d/b/a Service Line Warranties of America ("SWLA") for a Service Line Protection Program. Brian Davis was present and explained the agreement. Since the homeowners are responsible for the maintenance and repair of the water and sewer lines that run from the main meter to their home, repairs can be costly. This water line warranty will protect them from any repairs needed on the outside, buried water line for a small monthly fee. The company also takes care of the billing process. There is no cost to the City, we just provide our City logo and signature line of the Mayor or City Manager. This warranty pays up to $4,000 per occurrence. The City has the option to receive 12% of the revenues received or allow for a 12% discount to be passed on to the homeowners. 3.Review and Discuss Historic Preservation District.
