“It pays to carry water for the establishment, particularly SDS water.”

— City Council candidate Douglas Bruce said about former Councilman Margaret Radford’s new job with MWH, which received a $10 million contract from Colorado Springs Utilities to work on the Southern Delivery System water project.

Radford, who will do community outreach for MWH, will be paid in the mid-$80,000 range.

When Radford served on the City Council, she advocated for SDS, a 62-mile pipeline between Colorado Springs and Pueblo that will cost $2.3 billion, including construction and financing costs.
