Usually, it runs close to $100 (About half of that is sewer usage/ambulance service/trash collection).<br /><br />I went out and read my meter, and I immediately knew what had happened. The meter reader had read a "6" as an "8." No biggie, unless it's way over in the "thousands column." A quick call to a giggling city worker gal (who sounded quite attractive)...a re-read by the department...two days later a revised bill for $106.<br /><br />Dontcha just love competent service?Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10945901944078164054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18232353.post-67856182181793869882011-11-03T19:31:54.033-06:002011-11-03T19:31:54.033-06:00I thought maybe you'd turned in to a water buf...I thought maybe you'd turned in to a water buffalo now that you're no longer living in the moho.Dave (aka Buckskins Rule)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07764864394651709866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18232353.post-90127468193738332952011-11-03T16:38:26.018-06:002011-11-03T16:38:26.018-06:00Skip: Water is only part of my bill; the city als...Skip: Water is only part of my bill; the city also bills me for garbage and sewer services. The water portion of this month's bill was about $30.00... still high, methinks.<br /><br />Deb: Ah, there ya go: SERVICES!<br /><br />Lou: I think you're right on both counts.<br /><br />Anon: See the above. As I said to Skip: still high. But your point about no prior history is well-taken. Ya can't fight City Hall... but ya can shit on their steps when they're not looking.

The most I ever paid for it was $100, and that was during the summer when I had to fill the pool with 6 inches of water twice (this due to vacuuming out the pool to waste). <br /><br />I have a full house, 5 people living here, though I don't water the lawn. <br /><br />The normal bill is around $50. <br /><br />I think you are still over paying, but with no history involved it would be difficult to argue your case. For all they know, you might be someone who showers for hours at a time, flushes the toilet 60 times a day, and cleans off those flamingos hourly. ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18232353.post-41822038303354824462011-11-03T13:40:11.308-06:002011-11-03T13:40:11.308-06:00I'm thinking two women and a baby use lots mor...I'm thinking two women and a baby use lots more water than you - toilet paper too.Bag Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01885412195900280096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18232353.post-81671183206318131482011-11-03T13:36:42.289-06:002011-11-03T13:36:42.289-06:00The City of Calgary charges me MORE for sewage tha...The City of Calgary charges me MORE for sewage than it does for the incoming water.
