Construction of the water system was iniated in 1987 following preparation of a Water System Master Plan. This plan was subsequently updated in 1989. A further review of connection charges was provided to the City in cotTespondence dated June 1993. These documents provided details and recommendations for future capital improvements. Presently, the City's municipal water system provides fir distribution mains.

The City of Centerville haS built an interconnect with the City of Lino Lakes with the ability to have water flow either direction.
