Following the recent approval of the reading and adoption of an ordinance relating to changes of Perry County water and sewer rates, court members said tahat there has been some general concern and confusion within the community. During the July 13 Perry County Fiscal Court meeting, Perry County Judge-Executive Scott Alexander and court members discussed these concerns and explained the ordinance to community members.
âThe Perry County Fiscal Court inherited the Vicco Water and Waste Water Treatment Facility about six years ago, it was in a court case. We got about 1,000 plus meters on that system that was fixing to lose permanent service so we took the system over,â said Alexander. âThe system has been very good, we ve maintained water to customers about 99 percent of the time. It s rare that we have an outage and, a lot of times when we have disasters, we feed water into the city of Hazard to try to help.â
