January 29, 2008 - FAYETTEVILLE -- After nearly 30 years of contamination from benzene and trichloroethylene, clean water will soon start flowing for some residents along Rim Road and Sandra Street.
Emily Beissel takes care of her parents at their home on Rim Road. She knows the new water line comes with a hefty price tag.
"Were we gonna get the money," Beissel explained. "Cause see my parents, you know, they're, they don't have a lot of money. He's just wondering how much it's gonna cost. Are we going to have to pay for it?"
The Fayetteville Public Works Commission says residents will have to pay a $5,000 hook up fee. But at least they'll be able to connect. That's not the case for residents in 10 homes on nearby Maggie Circle and Debbie Street.
