About the Community

The Florida River Estates Water Company, Inc., is a non-profit organization responsible for the management of the community water system and common areas.
Mission Statement of the Board
The Florida River Estates Water Company Board consists of volunteer community owners. The Water Company is a non-profit.
The Board’s primary objective is to provide a safe and reliable source of water to the community it serves.
This objective is executed in a number of ways, amongst which is:
- Providing for both regular and emergency maintenance in all aspects of our water system
- Meeting state compliance standards and facilitating compliance testing
- Producing and enforcing a rate structure that provides for long-term financial stability in all aspects of delivering water service, including day-to-day operations, capital spending and crisis spending
- Enacting water restrictions only under careful review out of consideration to its residents
- Seeking out and authorizing low or no interest external funding sources on an as needed basis
- Regularly communicating important documents, plans and news to residents via the most appropriate of several channels, including email, the community website, monthly invoicing, flyers and door-to-door calls as necessary
As a secondary objective, we also maintain a recreational use area and a related spending fund for use only in maintaining and improving the recreation area.
Input and participation from the community is welcomed and encouraged.
