Butte City Water Company Sale and Foreclosure Details

Foreclosure proceedings named Deriae Wit as trustee for the water holders with a bid of $1,400,090, a $1,000,000 opening bid by Perkins as trustee for a new company, and involvement of Jones Judgmode and the Massachusetts Loan and Tyner Company. The sale occurred on the front steps of the county courthouse and the transfer involved a deed to a forming company. The old company defaulted on bonds, with a deficiency judgment against the water company and related receivership changes. The case ties to ongoing water system reconstruction and the Keynote mining claim dispute, including a separate claim over tunnel water and monthly valuation.
