GREENWOOD, Ind. – Indiana American Water in Greenwood announced Friday that members of the Silver Creek Water Corporation in Sellersburg have voted for Indiana American Water to become their provider of water service to the area in southern Indiana.
“We welcome Silver Creek residents into the Indiana American Water family, joining about 1.4 million customers that receive clean, safe, reliable, and affordable water service provided by our dedicated team,” stated Indiana American Water President Matt Prine.
Silver Creek Water recently notified its membership that nearly 74% of the members who cast ballots voted yes in favor of the acquisition.
Board President of Silver Creek Water Doug Chumbler said, “The sale to Indiana American Water will provide several benefits, including long-term rate stability, access to capital, a commitment to operating efficiently, and the ability to leverage its size and buying power to procure goods and services less expensively.”
If the acquisition is approved by the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission, approximately 8,000 water customers would be added to Indiana American Water’s service footprint.
