Show Notes
Residents of Robson Ranch, Arizona, are challenging a proposed 80% increase in water and sewer bills from JW Water, a private equity firm that bought the utility last November. The Arizona Corporation Commission will decide on March 4th. Locals, particularly retirees, argue against the hike, citing well-maintained systems and the need for phased increases or lower profits for the company. JW Water defends the increase, stating it covers underfunding and allows fair profits. The commission has approved large increases in emergencies, but residents contend this is not one. The decision awaits, with residents hoping to avoid a significant rate hike.
