The Pueblo Chieftain Online - Wednesday April 04, 2001 <br />wysiwyg:H81 /http: / /www. chieftain. com/wednesday /news /index /article /5 <br />Rose said the proposed Arkansas Valley Conduit, <br />which would provide clean Lake Pueblo water to <br />eastern Colorado towns, may need 3,000 -5,000 <br />acre -feet of reservoir storage. <br />The property tax extension would be more fair <br />because it would spread the cost of the water <br />management space to the entire district, Rose <br />said. A rate based on water sold to each entity in <br />the district also would work because it would <br />spread the cost, too. <br />Charging only the users of the water management <br />space for the cost of the space is just another way <br />to charge the small communities that need that <br />space, Rose said. <br />"It makes it almost prohibitively expensive," Rose <br />said. <br />Back to top <br />2E -mail this story to a friend <br />Print this story <br />4 Previous NexO <br />5; t e i ... <br />Please send us your commentsand suggestions <br />or e-mail our Webmaster. <br />View our Privacy Statement <br />01996 -2001 Chieftain.com <br />The Star- Journal Publishing Corp. <br />Pueblo, Colorado U.S.A. <br />4 of 4 4/4/014:15 PM <br />
