Description

The waters of Florida belong to the people of Florida, and the resource must
remain public to keep it safe and affordable. Although public entities typically manage water and sewer utilities, when these systems fall into private hands,
costs grow and consumers end up paying too much for poor-quality water. It can
lead to sewage spills and service problems. Because of these failures, taxpayer money should neither incentivize nor subsidize private ownership, management or operation of water and sewer systems.
