The Northern Kentucky Water District has officially broken ground on a new water tank in Taylor Mill.

The water tank, located a half mile south of Scott High School on Pride Parkway, has a capacity of 500,000 gallons. The new tank will purportedly provide people with better water pressure, enhanced water quality and increased water flow.

“At NKWD, we plan, build, maintain, and invest in our assets to deliver dependable services that promote a healthy, viable community,” NKWD President Lindsey Rechtin said in a press release. “The new Taylor Mill Tank will truly better serve the community and continue to provide a safe, clean and sufficient water supply.”

The water tank will be able to adequately serve the 2,633 active services in its pressure zone and provide sufficient storage in an emergency. Additionally, the site location provides elevated storage, which will buffer against pressure variations due to rapid increases or decreases in water demand in the area.

“This new water tower represents more than just infrastructure; it’s an investment in our quality of life, ensuring safe, reliable water for generations to come. Together, we’re building a stronger foundation that will support healthy resources for our residents and economic growth throughout Kenton County,” Judge/Executive Kris Knochelmann said in the release.

The new tank is set to be completed in the fall of 2025, according to the water district.
