Sandbranch Water Saga Continues

DALLAS (WBAP/KLIF News) – Members of several government agencies have held another meeting to discuss plans to bring water to the community of Sandbranch in southeast Dallas County.

Well water in the community has been contaminated for decades, and people have been using bottled water.

Resident Mary Nash said it wasn’t always that way.  “At one time, this was the best water in the world,” said Nash.

The long-term solution being considered also includes removing hazards like an estimated 50,000 old tires that have been dumped, and finding ways to help people fix up their homes.
