firefighters think electrical issues caused a lot of chaos early this morning at the westgate. nats of alarms it started around 1:30am when fire alarms went off.. lights went out and gaming machines shut down. then.. parts of the hotel were evacuated. 16:46:55:22 "the fire alarm, the noise was very intense and their nightgowns, their pajamas. ome people even came down with fire crews say smoke was reported near the dining area on the second floor.. most likely due to electrical problems. hotel employees say visitors were never in danger.. but they're still working to make things right with their guests. rent could skyrocket for dozens of families... over something.... they can't control. apartment management says... they can blame it all..... on the city of henderson. contact -13- looks at the fight... that's putting tenants.... in the middle. < sherri parker: it's stressful. it's overwhelming. sherri parker isn't holding back. sherri parker: it doesn't feel that we're living in a free country, if a city can put a small business' back up against the wall. sherri is the resident manager of "the pines" apartments, in henderson, near windmill and pecos. her troubles with the city started last march, after they changed the property's water sherri parker: our water bills have gone astronomical. they've gone from $4,500 up to $11,000, $12,000. sherri paid the skyrocketing bills... but called the city to find out what was going on. sherri parker: there must have been a misread on our meters, our bills are insane. things only got worse. in september, the city sent this letter to the pines. sherri parker: stating they had changed our meters out, and we were required to put in backflow devices. so what's that mean? when water flows through the meter and onto a property... a backflow prevention device stops possible contaminated water, from going back into the public system. sherri parker: we are now required to install these backflow devices. we need to pull permits. we need to hire an engineer. we need to get a certified plumbing company out here. the cost for all this work: more than 50 thousand dollars! the reason we have to install these backflow devices, is because the city of henderson has chosen cheaper substandard meters. frustrated, sherri reached out to contact 13 for help. we turned to henderson's director of utility services for answers. priscilla howell: we understand this wasn't something they expected from a cost perspective. a postion either that we can put this cost on the rest of our customer base. priscilla howell says the pines got new state-of-the-art meters, because the old ones weren't operating properly. and this work is required, with or without the new meters. but she admits something went wrong with the city's billing system, causing the pines' water bills to spike. priscilla howell: we corrected that immediately. in september, october, we refunded them that money. but that won't cover the cost of installing these backflow devices. and the pines isn't alone. there are a couple hundred nats of water sprinkler system turning off at the pines back at the pines, sherri says they're moving forward with plans to install backflow devices, for each water meter. but she argues this unanticipated cost, is going to have a major impact on her tenants. sherri parker: the only way we're going to be able to do it, is by increasing the rents.> rent at the pines is expected to climb.... -30- to -50- dollars.... depending on the number of residents.... in each unit. the city says.... it wants to do everything possible..... to avoid the pines having to pass the cost... onto its tenants. so... they're suggesting a water audit.... to help find ways to conserve water and save money. coming up on 13
