The Manhasset–Lakeville Water District (MLVWD) is a public water utility district serving a large portion of Nassau County, on Long Island, in New York, United States.
The Manhasset–Lakeville Water District was founded in 1911, thus making it one of the oldest public water suppliers on all of Long Island.[1]
In 1958, voters in the district voted against a controversial proposal to add fluoride to the district's water supply.[2]
In the 2010s, the MLVWD replaced the Munsey Park Water Tower with a newer, more efficient one.[3] [4]
The Manhasset–Lakeville Water District serves the following communities:[5]
The Village of Plandome is not served by the district, as the village maintains its own water system. This makes the Plandome Manor portion of the MLVWD separated from the rest of the district's system.
Additionally, the district serves an area of roughly 10.7mi2.
The MLVWD has 6 interconnections with neighboring water districts. These interconnections are with the Albertson Water District, the Garden City Park Water District, the Port Washington Water District, the Water Authority of Great Neck North, and the Western Nassau Water Authority.
