Proposed ballot question seeks to ensure Pittsburgh's sewer and water system remains public

Activists and Pittsburgh City Council members aim to put a question on the May 20 ballot that could safeguard Pittsburgh's water and sewer system from privatization.
The article from WESA discusses a potential ballot question in Pittsburgh regarding the future of the city's water and sewer systems. Currently managed by the Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority (PWSA), there is a debate about whether these utilities should remain under public control or be sold to a private entity. Advocates for keeping the systems public argue that privatization could lead to higher rates and less accountability, while proponents of privatization suggest it could bring in much-needed investment and efficiency. The ballot question aims to let Pittsburgh residents decide if the PWSA should remain a public entity, reflecting broader national discussions on the privatization of public utilities. This issue has gained traction due to concerns over infrastructure maintenance, water quality, and equitable access to services.
