RWU wants to sell its million dollar water tower to the water company (BCWA) for $1 in order to avoid paying for long term maintenance of the tower.
The water tower is to help provide them with more water pressure which the BCWA states it is not responsible for. Home owners without sufficient water pressure are given a one time stipend for equipment which covers a small part of the cost and after that breaks down the bills are not covered.
In order to facilitate the water tower the BCWA spent several hundred thousand dollars on digging up Ferry Rd to install new water pipes for the tower feed. This cost has not been reimbursed by RWU. A homeowner here would have to pay 100% of the cost of any feed pipes to connect for their water feeds.

Good one and so true, this was such an obvious scam by RWU on the town of bristol and the BCWA. Not only did RWU get the enormous tax write of for the tower. Handed over conviently on Dec. 31, 2009 But they dont have anymore long term cost with it now. We the ratepayers and taxpayers now do.
Shame on the Bristol Council for falling for this con game.
