The full Council and Committee of the Whole Schedule can be obtained at martensville.ca Water meter reads for Fall and Winter As of October 2016, the North Side of Martensville had their water meters read and the South was estimated. The South Side will have their meters read in November, while the North will be estimated. This alternating schedule will continue until May. In May, both the North and South residents will have their meters read until the end of September. Residents have the option to call in or email in their meter reads. By reading your own meter, you can keep your account current and accurate between readings done by our meter readers.
