Discussion regarding possible potable water issues in Hidalgo County.
T.J. Arredondo, Planning Administrator, expressed his concern over a report from a local television station stating over exaggerated statistics regarding residents without potable water. In researching the colonia list, they discovered that only two colonias did not have water; therefore, North Alamo is applying for funding to be able to provide water to those residents. Mr. Oliver De La Garza, Secretary of State’s Office, informed the Court that the list that the news station gathered their information from indicated the area was “RED”, not meaning that it did not have a water source, yet meaning it has not been platted. Commissioner Flores inquired on what colonias in Precinct 3 were not supplied with water and why. Mr. Arredondo stated that there are only the two previously mentioned (in Precinct 1) and one not on the list. Mr. Arredondo suggested that the reasoning behind the lack of water is that when the colonias were developed, laws weren’t in place; therefore, the developer sold lots to individuals who were then unable to afford to replat. Mr. Arredondo stated that they would contact the Water Corporation to see if they have plans to extend water lines out to those areas. Judge Garcia asked Mr. Arredondo to visit with the residents and take their statements regarding the length of time they have been there and if any attempts have been made to obtain water in order to identify the problem. Commissioner Cantu also recommended they get a cost estimate to ascertain funding. Mr. Jesse Aguirre, North Alamo Water Supply, expressed that they have been working to attain grant funding for those residents, particularly in La Villa. Mike Hernandez, Melden and Hunt Engineers, informed the Court that they are working on the project in La Villa and are in the process of reallocating funds from a Santa Rosa project to enable them to get water to those residents. Mr. Hernandez requested a letter of support from the Court in order to convince the USDA to focus on these issues and the Court agreed. He also informed the Court that the monies from the USDA will allow paying for the resident’s membership, installation of service connection, and a meter. The only expense the resident will have is running a line from their home to the meter.
