Bad Taste Of Water Sparks City Council Debate
Nelsonville city council discussed the water taste issue after citizens complained. Water tests showed 200 parts per million hardness due to reduced soda ash use under a cost-cutting order. Council members considered offering deep well water despite higher treatment costs. Test wells showed hardness as high as 600 parts per million, and officials noted softened well water might not match the taste of untreated water.
