This is one of the reasons I moved out of the city so I could have my own well and septic. I don't want to rely on municipal water. to name just a few.

residents are concerned that the city lacks qualified staff to run the plant efficiently

Concerned enough to dig their own well?

Water samples collected from homes citywide later revealed that lead levels had spiked to above levels deemed safe in drinking water.

I'm only surprised they didn't revise the "safe" level requirement.

I've solved this problem by simply removing centralized water infrastructure. I do it myself. I test my water regularly, treat my water and dispose of it myself. It's not rocket science.

Our drinking water is bottled and we do not drink the tap water, even filtered. I know it is "safe" but I also don't like all of the other shit they put in the water like fluoride and sometimes the water smells horrid because of issues at the treatment plant..etc.

I wish we were somewhere that we had a well and our own filters/etc. I hope that will happen sooner rather than later. It depends on how far out of town I can convince the Wife to live and what city/state to be near.

You should be able to dig your own well, even in the city. However, I decided to simply flee the city. The plandemic made it possible for me to leave. I did. I don't regret it.

Just move away from a large metropolitan area with populations below 50 thousand.

That is the goal and I hope to realize that goal soon. Still don't know exactly where we want to be but have a few places picked out. Its more timing and dealing with the market that is so fucked sideways its insane that is causing the hold up. However, we are ready to move in a week if something lands that looks right.

I know we are not near by but I would not mind having you as a neighbor.
