The time has come for me to start taking prepping as serious as I once did.

We are all on septic as well. Not sure what causes our water to be so expensive.

The only thing I can think of, we are all scattered around, maybe it costs more for the far reaching lines??

I can't imagine the infrastructure costs more than mine does.

there are 3 pumping stations (and 1000' of elevation) in the mile between me and the main road just to get it up the mountain.

It seems very strange that water in the literal desert is cheaper than it is in TN.

Now, I have septic, and always have, so that's a water only rate, but still.

That tells me there is either gross incompetence or the water bill is being used as a convenient way to raise money for other spending.

Could be the reason. The system is old, maybe from when the dam was built. At times the local company buys from KUB to supplement….with a trillion gallon lake right there.
