FAQ - Next Steps
- With the assent voting now completed (with a majority supporting the transfer of both utilities to the RDOS), what are the likely dates this will officially occur (the Timeline mentions 'Summer 2025' and 'Complete acquisition of services' in Fall 2025)?
- Once those steps are concluded, will repairs to both systems begin? Once repairs begin, will there be a lifting of the PPOs and building permits allowed to be issued again by the RDOS?
- When would the RDOS typically apply for grants to help with the financial burden to home/lot owners on the repairs to both utilities?
- Will there be information coming out from the RDOS about next steps now that the utilities will finally be transferred?
