Corpus Christi is in a long-term drought, but City Hall gives the biggest water users a pass on paying and doing their fair share.
For nearly a decade, large industrial water users have been allowed to pay a modest exemption fee to avoid drought surcharges and some conservation requirements, even during severe drought stages.
It's time for voters to decide if that's fair.
The Fair Water Amendment would end this exemption and finally make huge industrial users pay their fair share. You can contribute toward the effort to pass this Corpus Christi ballot initiative in November!
