Water Costs
-
10/30/2010
I just moved to Idaho. I have found that there is, at least two levels of cost for water in the 83709 area code. It seems that some properties sold by CBH Homes have "water rights" and their water costs is about $35.00 per 2 months and others have no rights and water costs is about $200.00 per two months except my most recent billing, for example was $265. 00.
Can someone explain to me why "water rights" transfer with some property and not with others and, perhaps, why the lack of "water rights" is not disclosed as part of the sales transaction. I was a resident of Calif and purchased my house prior to movig to Idaho and had no knowledge of the "water rights"
