Below are two examples that have been shared with us. Names have been withheld to protect the individuals’ privacy.
1. No Water Service Provided Due To Excessive Fees
One individual reported that they attempted to establish water service with Marbury Water System approximately 10 years ago. According to the individual, they were initially quoted a price to have a water meter installed and paid that amount. They state that the meter was never installed.
After contacting Marbury Water System to inquire about the delay, they were reportedly informed that the cost had increased by approximately $500. They paid the additional amount, but they state the meter still was not installed.
According to the individual, they later contacted the system again and were told the price had increased once more. At that point, they decided not to continue pursuing the installation.
The individual told us they have since relied on collecting artesian well water in Prattville for bathing, washing dishes, and other household uses because they were never able to obtain water service. To our understanding, some of the fees were partially refunded to the potential customer, but not all.
2. Water Meter Relocation
An existing Marbury Water System customer told us they needed to relocate their water meter approximately five feet as part of a renovation project.
According to the customer, Marbury Water System evaluated the request and quoted approximately $1,800 to move the meter the short distance. The customer stated they felt they had no practical alternative but to pay the fee in order to complete the renovation.
