Eagle Pass Water Works to receive phone payments from customers
Staff
-Eagle Pass
Starting Monday October 7, 2013, Eagle Pass Water Works System will be receiving payments from customers who wish to pay by phone.
The Eagle Pass Water Works System has established a system through Paymentus Corporation for residents to pay their water bills by phone at the following number 1-855-768-9685.
The system is in English but we have attached the instructions in both English and Spanish to assist the people that might not understand.
If you have any questions please contact Eagle Pass Water Works System at 830-773-2351.
The step by step system is simple, but requires several steps to save you a trip to their offices.
A $1.95 fee will be charged to your Visa, Master Card, Discover and/or electronic check. You will have to have your account # handy, your zip code, a daytime contact number, your card number, its expiration date, the three digit security code number, your bill amount with your star key as the decimal point Ex. 39.95=39*95. The system will then ask you to press "1" to confirm the payment before giving you a confirmation number of your successful payment.
Aclosed-door meeting was held with angry parents and some EPISD administrators which included Superintendent Gilbert Gonzalez and Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction Samuel Mijares. The reunion which lasted about 55 minutes was held at the District Service Center Board Room as parents, some of whom had seemingly taken time off of work to attend, filed into the assembly. "Hay cosas que affectan a los niños que con el tiempo les puede hacer daño,<These are things which can affect our children that with time can do them harm>" said one father who spoke to us when exiting the gathering, "Nos dijo que no sabe nada, y nosotros le dijimos que porque nos hablo a una junta si no sabe nada<He said they don't know anything, and we asked him 'Why did you call us to a meeting if you don't know anything>. Me dijo 'Si se quiere ir vallase.' <He said, 'If you want, you can leave'> Eso fue la respuesta <That was his answer>. y yo le dije, 'Como me voy a ir si me preocupa mijo.' <and I told him, 'How can I leave if my child is important to me, I care about my son>." Parents came out of the meeting maybe even with more questions and concerns than when they arrived as they spoke to the media on they way out.

GEO have given Maverick County a thirty day notice that they will not continue with their contract with the county.
"We won't be specific about the future Commissioner's Court will be going in in reference to the facility, but what I can mention are the possibilities which exist for the future of that facility. What we're looking at is that GEO has come in and the bond holders have decided not to continue the contract with Maverick County. What we're here to do today is to notify the citizens of Maverick County and the employees that work there that we're doing our best as a county and we've already started investigating avenues that can exist for the operation of that facility."
