Municipal water demand remains steady and funded
The call signals durable low-single-digit municipal demand, supported by recurring local funding and essential repair-and-replacement work. This is a constructive read-through for water utilities and infrastructure suppliers exposed to municipal projects.
Yeah, sure. I'll take that one, Brian. Thanks for the question. I'll start talking about municipal. I would say overall, the market is vastly in line with what we expected and in line with what we've been seeing over the last couple of quarters. Municipal continues to be strong, stable, steady, kind of up in that low single digits range. Good funding sources, consistent repair and replacement activity, and that's an end market that we expect to be strong and stable as we go forward.
