Bringing Us Poor Country Folk Water!?

Well, it seems that the long awaited rural water system has reached our part of the country. The county is bringing in good drinking water for all us country folk. It will be treated with Chlorine and who know's what else.
As for me and my house, we are refusing the hook-up as our spring-fed well water tastes a thousand times better than their treated city water. They can just walk on by...
I am wondering when the rural beautification council will give us some attention, giving all the nice work the water dept. is doing (see the pics.)? They have all kinds of heavy equipment and the deafening noise to accompany. They are clearing about 25 feet of trees and just pushing them to the side in order to run what looks like a 4-6 inch water line; seems like they could have found a much easier way to do this without having to make such a big impact. Sure ruined a beautiful view. If I were only ten, it would be like a trip to disney...but at my age, I can do without all the destruction and noise.
