Brown County Rural Water Municipal Water Company and EPABrown County Rural Water Municipal Water Report Info
Our History: In the mid 1970s, larger towns in Brown County maintained water systems, but rural areas relied on wells and reservoirs. Many residents faced challenges with well locations or insufficient water supply for growing household and farm needs.
Two community groups—one from the Feesburg area and another from Sardinia—joined forces to address this issue. To qualify for Farmers Home Administration (FmHA) loans, they established a private non-profit organization called BCRWA.
This rural system began as and continues today as an independent organization committed to providing safe water and reliable service to its customers.
Municipal Water Utility Company FAQ

For more information on your municipal water, visit the U.S. CDC:
Brown County Rural Water Municipal Water Company and CDC- What is a Certificate of Appropriateness? A Certificate of Appropriateness (CA) is a permit allowing construction, demolition, or alteration of structures within designated landmark districts. This certificate doesn't replace building permits, which must be obtained separately if required for your project.
- When do I need a Certificate of Appropriateness? You must obtain a CA for work on all structures in a Landmark district, including non-contributing buildings, rear modifications, and significant landscaping changes anywhere on the property. Contact your district staff member if uncertain.
- What constitutes a structure? A structure includes any building on your property—both main and accessory buildings—plus fences, retaining walls, carports, and landscaping features exceeding 6 inches in height.
- Do fences, gates, and landscaping require a CA? Yes, all fences/gates and many landscaping changes require prior CA approval. However, planting perennials and annuals in existing beds is exempt.
- Do I need a CA for demolition? Yes, but you'll need to complete a Certificate for Demolition (CD) application instead. The review process follows a similar timeline to the CA process.
- Do Certificates expire? CAs become invalid if continuous progress toward completion stops for more than 180 days. The director may authorize extensions upon written request showing circumstances beyond the applicant's control. CDs expire 180 days after approval.
