On Wednesday 11/13/13, I attended a Public Hearing on the Proposed Revision to the

Metropolitan District Water Supply Ordinances and Rate increase along with more than 100 angry citizens

who were looking for answers as to why their water bills which had increased more than

300% over the last 3 years. There were many comments and opinions. I expect attendance would have been greater

Had the MDC provided more notice?

 

Comments included:

 

No Transparency

Taxation without representation

Lack of regulation by the State of Connecticut

Lack of Financial Transparency

MDC out of Control

Why does the MDC have two CEO’s?

Why does the MDC fail to disclose the salaries of their executives?

 

The tone of the group was intense.

 

The goal of this e-mail, is to heighten the awareness of our elected officials in the state legislature to push for the State of Connecticut to regulate the MDC like all other utilities in Connecticut.  

 

If you or, anyone, would like more information about this meeting and the deplorable business practice of the MDC, please feel free to call

me anytime. My number is 860-688-3349-H and 860-478-3326-C
