(Des Moines, IA) -- West Des Moines and Urbandale are considering joining the City of Des Moines to create a regional water utility that could save customers money on their utility bills. Des Moines Water Works CEO Ted Corrigan tells WHO Radio News Central Iowa Water Works would control source water, drinking water treatment, and wholesale rate setting for the entire Des Moines metro. He says consolidating services will be more cost effective and save money long term. West Des Moines and Urbandale will hold meetings next month to discuss joining the group.
