The Reading Area Water Authority recently sent the operators of the Sovereign Center a surprise: a letter demanding that the arena replace its big water meter within 30 days or risk the authority shutting off its water.
If the arena shuts down the system to replace the meter, or if the authority does, the arena can’t make ice, center general manager Zane Collings told the Berks County Convention Center Authority at its Thursday meeting.
The Reading Royals were in the middle of the hockey season when the Feb. 28 letter arrived and now they’re in the playoffs. The team starts the Eastern Conference semifinals tonight.
City Council adopted the ordinance requiring the new meters 10 years ago.
