Roswell's municipally run water system is praised for the lowest rates in the state except Artesia, funding city services despite tax cuts. The plant's surplus supported a new jail and city hall while water profits under Lea Rowland helped cover budgets, with 64 million gallons pumped last month and 2738 connections in town.
