Mr. Carrico recent water bill was 3 times the normal rate. He later learned that Utilities had a list of people whose water bills increased drastically. Mr. Carrico is upset that no one informed him as soon as this was noticed so he could look into the problem. After he was informed, he called a plumber and it will be several days before they can work him in. He would like an adjustment to his bill.

Mrs. Soni called the Utilities dept. regarding her water bill, to see if they wld. change her billing cycle to read DUE ON ____ (anytime during the 1st week of every mo.). Currently, she receives a bill that is due on the 26th of every mo. She wld. like it changed so her checks won't "cross" the billy cycle, and also so she won't receive a DISCONNECT NOTICE every mo. She says, " It's counterproductive, really." The Utilities dept. says they will NOT change her billing cycle-she's not happy.
NOT CONNECTED TO SEWER,BUT WAS BILLED FOR SEWER.
