02 / Questions
Questions from DeWitt homeowners
Is my DeWitt address on county or city water?
It can be either. OCWA supplies the town, and the City of Syracuse supplies parts of it. Your water bill shows which one you pay.
Does the $100 off cover any plumbing job?
It comes off your first job booked through us, whichever of the five types it is. The terms page has the details.
Where does my responsibility for the pipe begin?
On OCWA water, ask OCWA: its rules say the shutoff valve on your property line, but its FAQ says it owns only the meter. On City of Syracuse water, at the curb box. Both run inward to the meter and on through the house.

04 / Whose pipe
Water and ownership in DeWitt
Start with the water bill, because DeWitt does not have a single supplier. Onondaga County Water Authority's 2024 source table lists the town as receiving Otisco Lake, Lake Ontario or Skaneateles Lake water, and the City of Syracuse separately reports supplying parts of the town under wholesale and service agreements. Where your pipe starts depends on which of the two is on your bill.
On an OCWA address, its rules put its side at the shutoff valve on the property line while its FAQ claims only the meter, so ask OCWA where yours starts. Everything indoors is yours. On a City address, the main to the curb box is the City's, the pipe from the curb box to the meter is yours, and the meter is the City's.
The houses are mostly mid-century. DeWitt's median year built is 1963, 75.8 percent of homes predate 1980 and 18.7 percent go back to 1939 or earlier. With 73.6 percent owner-occupied, the pipe, the heater and the fixtures are mostly the occupant's to maintain, and age is the first thing to mention when you ask for a price.
The state inventory lists 2,036 lines under the locality DeWitt (1,974 unknown, none confirmed lead) and 878 under Town of Dewitt (1 lead, 2 galvanized requiring replacement, 631 unknown).
