Water in Las Conchas

[ron]

I have a number of questions for persons living in Las Conchas:
Are all homes on city water? If so, are homes separately metered?
Why do some (if not all) homes have water tanks installed?
What is the approximate cost of water?

Hope these are not stupid questions but I'm trying to get a feel for the area.

My house is on city water and has it's own meter. You pay a flat fee for water in January. Can't remember the amount of water you get but I have never had to pay extra. If you exceed the water there is additional charges. Cost this year was around $325

What he said... Also the tanks were left over from before we got consistent water pressure. We use to only have water for 1 day a week so the tanks and individual pumps provided water for our houses.

Thanks for in explanation. Does that mean most homes have abandoned the holding tanks and are now hooked directly up to city water?

No the cistern's are there to serve as a precaution, summer water shortage, waterline breaks and so on.
