MS. ROBBINS FEELS THAT THE METHOD USED TO ASSESS WATER AND SEWER BILLS IN SUMMER AND EARLY IS UNFAIR. SHE FEELS CUSTOMERS SHOULD BE GIVEN A BREAK ON THE BILLING FOR THE MONTH OF OCTOBER ALSO.
Letter dated 3/10/04 from Emogene H. Carter for property owned by Harold Carter stated at the end of Jan., Util. ofc. was called to check on overcharge of $28.41. Later, a copy of account breakdown was received confirming overcharge. Correction did not show up in either February or March bill.
Letter rec'd. from Nextwave Mgmt. Group re. former tenant Aaron Waltz. Would like review by USB Admin. Subcommittee. Do not feel they should be responsible for former tenant's delinquent bill.
Customer had new stool installed but had to leave in a hurry. Apparently, stool did not shut off. Customer wants adjustment made on water bill.
Mr. Waters has called and visited numerous times. He feels he should be credited $50 because he was on vacation and did not use that amount of water. His meter was tested and no problems were found. Mr. Waters told that he could not be credited that amount. He wants to appeal to Mike Phillips when he returns.
CUSTOMER CONCERNED BECAUSE THEY HAVE EAST MONROE AND ARE ON OUR SEWER SYSTEM. THINKS SINCE WE DON'T METER WHAT GOES INTO THE SEWER WE REALLY CAN'T BILL THEM CORRECTLY. FEELS LIKE THEY ARE BEING OVERCHARGED. I EXPLAINED THE FLAT RATE TO HIM IT DIDN'T SEEM TO HELP ANY.
Letter was rec'd. from Mr. Polus who requested that watering credits be based on bills for January and March rather than April and May due to large amounts of watering done early in year.
I rec'd copy of letter from Mr. Coster stating he had been paying wrong bill and that he was contacted by CBU with correct amount owed. He feels this is unfair and is willing to pay $105.85. ** NOTE: I DID NOT RECEIVE ORIGINAL LETTER, ONLY COPY FROM KATHY GRUBB. MR. COSTER STATES HE INCLUDED CHECK IN AMOUNT OF $105.85; HOWEVER, IT WAS NOT INCLUDED WITH COPY I RECEIVED. ** ***FURTHER NOTE: Check was received on 12/2/99 and was applied to balance due on account. ***
