@KDnTheD @Southfield_Gov Hi Kalisha! Contractors can purchase water for use on job sites via our fire hydrants. The device pictured allows them to control flow as well as prevents backflow into our water system. Rest assured if there’s a fire, we will shut down their operation to utilize this hydrant.
