Who is responsible for the problem and why aren they paying for the repairs?
The “cause” of the problem is unknown. The cause could be from improper installation, defective materials, or both, or neither. As such, the District does not know who is “responsible” for the problem. Because of the District’s limited funds and the need to repair the problem as quickly as possible, the District Board has decided that it will not pursue any legal action for the purposes of assigning responsibility. Also, the District does not have legal standing to bring a lawsuit against any of the potential parties that may have caused the pipe to fail.
