Draft #3 of the “Town of Washington Water Service Ordinance” was presented and discussed. Mayor Stu Willis highlighted the added sections that pertain to the sale of water to nonresidents of the town, and the town’s right to curtail such sales in the event of an emergency, such as a drought. These sections note, in part, “Requests to purchase water may be made to any member of Tbwn Council or to the Town Administrative Assistant. Approval of such sales may be made by the Mayor, Vice-Mayor, Treasurer or the Town Council.”
Water sales will be made through a hydrant or other connection to the water system, and town residents should note that an approved sale will require that the purchaser carry a “purchase permit” and will see that such transfer of water is made through a town water meter.
The council also discussed the price of water to nonresidents, and decided to further amend the draft ordinance by increasing that rate to $1 per hundred from a rate that was equivalent to resident water rates.
