Lake Worth to keep buying water from West Palm Beach, despite taste and odor problems

Click title for link to PB Post article. Note that Commissioner Jennings is trying to play both sides:

Following today's vote, Commissioner Cara Jennings asked city staffers to post a notice on the city's Web site telling residents that the use of West Palm Beach water is temporary.

"I don't think any of us want West Palm Beach water," Jennings said. "This is an emergency."

Strange how emergencies can last 2.5 to 3 years with this City Commission.

Why are we fighting the Palm Beach County water contract? This is another obstacle for our Comprehensive Plan to achieve compliance - another excuse to say "no" to any redevelopment.
