A real estate developer sought recovery of all payments for water service for a two year period to the Nob Hill Water Association. The developer claimed that the water association was a public service company subject to regulation by the Utilities and Transportation Commission. The Supreme Court of Washington ruled that the association was not a public service corporation subject to regulation, rather it was a nonprofit cooperative.
