I heard on the radio this morning that we can expect our water bills to go up 7% in each of the next three years. The reason..... People are conserving water, so the city is not making as much money as they need to. What a kick in the butt! Makes me want to have 20 minute showers every day and run our dishwasher and do 20 loads of laundry. At least that way I would actually be paying for the water that I am using, not just paying for the lack of water use. Boo!
