Watchdog group questions Roundup's accuracy


Water For Pine Strawberry (DO NOT SEND USPS MAIL)





Hello Neighbors,
The Proposed FY 2013-2014 PSWID Budget will be presented
to the public on Sat., May 18, 2013, at 10:00 AM. It will be
held in the Pine Cultural Hall
The PSWID Board will be voting on the Final Budget at this
time. Please try and attend this very important meeting.
During this meeting you should be allowed to ask questions
and make comments to the PSWID Board.

The Payson Roundup wrote an article in which they
said that the PSWID Board was focusing on much lower
water rates and property taxes than we had stated. 
We would respectfully point out that the published
Proposed Budget has two line items for Property Taxes
and the total is $625,000 whereas our existing Property
Taxes are $300,000. 

The suggested increase will more than double our
Property Taxes. With the increase in water rates the
change varies with usage and 3,000 gallon usage has
been the standard used during discussions in the past.
Residents using 3,000 gallons will indeed see a 33%
increase in water rates.
