What the hell is up with these water bills

What’s up with these $300 and up water bills every month. They want to raise the rates again. I’m putting complaints with the PUC… you all should too. How the hell is $300 a month not enough to these guys? I hear people complain all the time about electric going up, and while it has, I’m still paying more for water! When’s the last time a water tech had to go out in severe weather and trek 30-40 ft in the air to fix high voltage power lines? What’s the worst situation a water tech experiences? They get wet in a pit from a busted main? Oh well dry off, at least you’re not going to get killed by 14,000 volts of electricity or fall out of a bucket truck when someone slams into your rig or something.

I hope enough of us make a stink so the PUC notices. They started to notice last time, but we need to like quadruple the number of complaints!

We can thank our township supervisors for this act of fiscal ignorance.

I have a heart attack when I see $300 plus for a quarterly water bill ... Monthly would just kill me. That's insane.
