The Village of Carpentersville, Illinois, has been successfully addressing many significant issues that has and will impact the community with pressing concern is the aging infrastructure, particularly the water supply system.

With the help from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency’s Principal Forgiveness Loan Program, Carpentersville has replaced 390 lead water service lines at no cost to residents, with plans to replace the remaining lines by fall 2025. (Data source – cville.org).
