Stone County Public Water Supply District No. 1 customers voted 78% in favor to sell their water system to Missouri American Water, surpassing the required two-thirds majority. The sale, pending Missouri Public Service Commission approval, will enable Missouri American Water to invest at least $5 million over five years to improve infrastructure, reduce leaks, and enhance fire protection and water quality. About 840 customers will gain access to improved services including 24/7 emergency support and online account management. This move addresses critical infrastructure needs that the smaller district could not manage alone, promising a more reliable and sustainable water system for the community.
