Bylaws Violations

A rural water district is a non profit corporation; it is not regulated by the Corporation Commission or the County Commissioner. There is no oversight or regulating authority over any rural water board in Oklahoma. There was supposed to be a Rural Water District Oversight Council created by H.B. 1371 in 1991, but the state dropped the ball and we never got it.

Members can not get a copy of their Membership Certificates or the Bylaws.

Members have not signed a User Agreement per their bylaws rendering them unenforceable.

The water treatment schedule is not disclosed to customers.

Meter readings are not on the water bills.

They do not give receipts for payments.

They refuse to accept cards or offer an online payment option in violation of the ADA.

Members are accused of having unconfirmed leaks that we have to pay for.

They will not allow the town park to have a restroom; they refuse to do the plumbing and argue that they don't want to scrub toilets.
