Impact analysis
If the deal goes through, it could bring new revenue to the city—and potentially affect your water bill, for better or worse.
All TWU customers on both sides of the state line benefit from a reliable long-term water supply.
Arkansas-side water customers could be harmed if the deal raises bills or puts pressure on local supply, but that risk isn’t confirmed yet.
