K.B.S.D December 2025 Newsletter
Below is the meeting schedule for the upcoming year. As is customary, the June board meeting is held on a Saturday.
Please make sure that tank lids are exposed. If the tanks lids are covered, it may be difficult and expensive to locate and access. This could also delay any needed repairs especially in the case of an emergency. Also, please do not put locks on the breaker box to the sewer pump. The operator may need access in the case of a sewer emergency.
The board would like to remind the community to change out batteries on smoke alarms and CO detectors if you have not done so already.
As always, if you experience any problems with your septic system, please call the office and leave a message, and then call Anthony’s cell at 208-946-3842. Sometimes, the cell service is not the best and messages and texts can get delayed.
The board and staff would like to wish all of you a happy holiday season.
Sincerely,
Kalispell Bay Sewer Board
Board meetings are the second Monday of each month at 7:30 a.m., May – August, and 9:00 a.m., September-April, unless otherwise noted.
