Comment description: am just astonished that Eagle
for a temporary surcharge to cover the expense of the
Water Company has the gall to ask
water problems they had this summer.
From what I heard on the radio, Eagle Water is asking for this rate increase because the
cement company broke a water main plus Eagle Water needed to add extra pumps.
This just continues to add to the saga of Eagle Water Company s woes. I've lived in the
Eagle Springs Estate subdivision since February of 1998. I'm an original homeowner in
phase III of this subdivision. Since day one we have had subpar water pressure. One
summer we went multiple days with no water at all. This summer as in past summers, I had
to shower in the evening before bed because there wasn t enough water to shower in themornings.
If the cement company ruptured a main line, Eagle Water should hold them responsible forrepairs. If, as I suspect, Eagle Water just hasn t kept up their infrastructure to meet
demand, then they should absorb the cost themselves.
To suffer all summer with lack of water, and then be asked to pay extra for water notreceived is distatseful. Eagle Water has been a mismanaged, disorganized, and poorsupplier every year that I've been on their water system. I implore you not to approve
their surcharge request and reward them for extremely poor performance.
Thanks for your time.
