Recently, a meeting was held at the conference room of the town hall of Sosúa for residents of Sosúa.
The meeting focused on complaints that people have about the lack of piped water supply for weeks now.
For weeks, the towns of Sosúa including Cangrejos, Charamicos, Maranatha, Los Castillos and La Unión devoid of water.
The meeting was led by Mayor Ilana Neumann and several councilors including Johnny Matos.
The residents expressed their anger at the lack of the water so they could not bathe for weeks now and can not wash their clothes.
And all this under daily temperatures of 30 to 38 degrees Celsius!
The spokesman for the water company CORAAPLATA said in its defense that the supply of water to the municipality of Sosúa costs 10 million pesos per months.
But because many people do not want to pay their bills, the company can only pick up 7 million per month.
That means a loss of 3 million pesos per month!
Talks about the water problem
The losses incurred and the water company can no longer meet her obligations.
The spokesman also complaint about the fact that many residents waste unnecessarily a lot of water.
They often leave the tap open for long periods of time.
Eventually they appointed a committee of six people, consisting of representatives of the residents, the water company and the municipality and they have the task to come up soon with a solution for the problem.
