On June 5, 1851, the Pillow Water Company was established. Early pipes were made of clay, but various materials were used over the years. Initially, water was sourced from a spring on the north side of Mahantango Mountain through a gravity system. Later, water was piped from springs and wells on the south side. The first water meters were installed in 1968. On July 1, 1986, the Borough purchased the Water Company for $40,000, and the Pillow Borough Authority was created to manage it. Over the years, the town’s water system has seen many upgrades, including new water mains, tank refurbishments, and a new well. Currently, the Authority provides water to the town using two wells and a spring.
Meetings are held in the Pillow Borough Hall located at 129 North Pine Street on the second Tuesday of every month at 6pm. All are welcome.
