A water hauling company owner says he can help Rio Verde Foothills homeowners after Scottsdale turns off the spigot Jan. 1, but the plan relies heavily on the city – which reported it is not even considering the offer at this time.
Damon Bruns, owner of Dynamite Water, says he has struck a deal to purchase 65 million gallons of water – enough to meet the Rio Verde Foothills’ needs for a year – from the San Carlos Apache Indian Tribe.
He hopes to negotiate an agreement with the city to treat the water so he can help the approximately 700 homeowners in the community northeast of Scottsdale that rely on water hauling.
