I despised this bill 4 times a year and now we’ll get it more often. Ridiculous to pay for water. Learn more about using rain water and recycling.
Theresa Davis Renehan really ð
They should go to a 2 week cycle, then they could get in a couple of extra weeks.

so when they tax you more you wont notice it .
Now if we could only get monthly and a better on-line payment system we would be all set.

Well this sucks TJ
Why is everyone complaining on facebook? You can cannot complain on a facebook page. No one will hear you or see it. If they do, they’ll ignore it. If you what a change, start by going to city council meetings. Voice your opinions there!!

This might actually be easier on our budget!!

Does this count Malta in as well,
Why doesn’t the city actually start paving some of these roads like how about south First st???? This road should of been compleated when the city completed all the water, sewer, and gas line upgrades. I would like to see my taxes go to improving the roadways as well. The whole water sewer and garbage bills……that doesnt really matter as long as the City is benefiting from the increase cost of postage vs the raise in water fees per unit.

Well how about a easier way to other than snail mail or dropping it off a easy online payment that doesn’t change fee’s that are to high for the convenience most places now a days have free online payment service cause I don’t care if we paid every month like my other utility bills just make it convenient to pay it
Good then that 3 month bill that I always forget about don’t piss me off when it arrives. Lol
