The price you're quoting from your utility likely includes water treatment, transport of the water to your home, transport of wastewater from your home, and wastewater treatment. I would be surprised if you're paying anything significant for the water itself.
It very well may be that Nestle (and many other companies) are under-paying for their water rights, but I don't think you're comparing apples to apples.
