ORANGE PARK - On Tuesday, the town council approved the purchase and installation of new utility meters for residences.
According to the Interim Town Manager, William Whitson, some meters will be altered in the system, and some changes have already been initiated.
About a third of the town will receive the new meters. The town said they will be installed by the end of February and hope to complete the transition over the next two years.
Whitson said it's important to note that anytime meters are changed out, residents can expect older meters in the ground to slow down, while new meters are more precise.
Residents may see changes in their bills as a result.
"For those that are getting new meters, they may be getting more accurate readings," Whitson said.
