Rumors - tonight’s subject: water rates ?

March 14, 2007 at 11:54 pm | In barnstable town council |

A few people are still reading the rantings on the blogs o’ conspiracy theories…
I have been asked about a 30% rate increase for Hyannis Water customers.
?????
Where does this come from?

There might be a recommendation from the board, but then there will be a public hearing and the decision is ultimately in the hands of one who would not permit such a large increase…

Where were these people when we were holding public hearings, workshops and receiving reports from some of the best consultants available for such a purchase?

Does anyone know that Connecticut Water had basically promised that if they remained in ownership of this company, they were considering increases much more than 30% to fund the needed repairs?

Be careful where you get your information folks.
It’s the old wooden nickels thing.

  1. Janet, The truth does not matter with the COG gang. It is nice to see that Bugsy, Gary and John are all reading your blog everyday. I think you are driving them nuts. Maybe they will learn something. We watched the meeting last night. Does Julius have any idea how most people in town perceive him? He must not be that perceptive, shall we say.
