Water Tower:

Water TowerThe City of Ulysses water tower was built in 1957 and holds 300,000 gallons. It is 150' to the top of the tower. The tower stores water and helps maintain steady water pressure throughout the system. Water is pumped from the reservoirs into the town lines. The water that isn't used by the town goes into the tower for storage. When the tower gets low on water a pump automatically turns on to fill the tower. 

Meter Reading:

The City of Ulysses is currently using a computerized hand held meter reader. Water works crew read the meters and enter the data into the device. The readings are then downloaded into the Data Summit System, which computes the bills to be sent out to the customers.
