All along I have been saying water rates are high because we are building our Reverse Osmosis System. Even if we had stayed with Palm Beach County water, it would have been even a higher rate. But it seems there is another cause.
Today we find out that we are LOSING water--lost through leaky pipes, old and broken meters or even theft.
The South Florida Water Management District conducted the study that said, in the County, Lake Worth is #3 for lost water at 8.1%. You can bet that the loss is factored into our bill. We are beaten by West Palm Beach at 13.7% and the brand new Glades plant tops the list at a loss of 40.1%.
With no or little investment or putting money back into our Utility to replace old pipes and meters, we could be number one some day.

Where can your comment about paying higher bills if the city honored the contract with PB County be verified?
We would have paid less. The commission voted to increase the rates to pay for r.o. plant. Tax and spend liberals. The contract with the county was already in place. That lie was soundly denounced during the boondoggle.
Ok now, if we were paying MORE to go to PB County Water (and that is a FACT), how then would our rates be lower if we had stayed in that unfavorable deal? There is NO lie about the facts when it comes to our own RO vs PB Coun6ty Water and nothing was denounced as such.
No wonder that guy stayed anonymous. How did he think we were going to pay for PB County water and all the pipes and infrastructure? Maybe that was Clemens posting smoking all that marijuana, medical of course.

No, it sounds more like one of those losing candidates in the last election.
