Aurora Water's mission is to deliver safe, reliable, high quality and sustainable water, sewer and stormwater services.

As a large city not located near a major water source, Aurora Water has had to be creative and forward-thinking in its approach to meeting its community's water needs. Aurora's semi-arid environment challenges us — but it also inspires bold solutions. From securing diverse water supplies to investing in advanced infrastructure, Aurora Water is constantly working behind the scenes to ensure clean water flows from every tap, supporting public health, a thriving economy and the everday quality of life we all enjoy.
