I have been told the city will test it for you for free, but doubt it, and to be honest I just haven't gone down or called to find out.
It cost me $75 to get a water sample independently tested. Some cities will do it for free if you have a valid concern (potential contamination through your incoming lines is a common reason for free testing.)
