rick...(o)(o) i still here...you know richmond has won some awards for it drinking water...but some areas of the town the well water is very hard..many have become used to it
or installed expensive softners..which doesn't make it any better tasting imo

i was going to recccomend that the town install a faucet at the town garage so many of us outsiders ..( joke) can get some to drink and make our coffees

While I'm not particularly pleased that a month of water testing was missed, I've been pleased with the work the crew and office have done in regard to the quality of water that comes into my home. Richmond still has the best drinking water in the state!report abuse

"Gardner said it appears Richmond's water is safe to drink."

Maybe Franco can drink a gallon of the water and if he's still around in a month or so, we'll know that the water is safe. If he's not, well, he led a good life . .report abuse
