HELENA â A continuing disagreement between residents of a Helena Valley subdivision and their water provider made its way before the Montana Public Service Commission on Tuesday. After a lengthy meeting, the PSC directed North Star subdivision leaders to find a way to make more water available for homeowners to use outdoors.
Commissioners said it was clear to them that the subdivision hasnât been providing adequate water service to its nearly 300 residential customers, but they were split on the best way to deal with the current issues that have led to watering restrictions. In the end, they approved a proposal from Commissioner Jennifer Fielder, directing that homeowners should be able to water outside for 30 minutes every other day, through Sept. 30.

HELENA â A long-running dispute between residents of a North Helena Valley subdivision and their water provider is set to go back before the Montana Public Service Commission this week, though the commission may not take immediate action.
The PSC asked North Star Development to come up with an emergency plan for limiting water consumption in the North Star subdivision off Montana Avenue, which includes just under 300 residential customers.
North Star Development and Rocky Mountain Operators â the contractor that runs the subdivisionâs water system â currently have a âno outdoor wateringâ policy in place, restricting watering lawns and other uses outside the home. Initially they proposed issuing termination notices to customers who didnât abide by that policy. Many residents said that plan was too harsh.
