Moonlight In Vienna Water sewer bills up Whiting explains why Water bills ere up again and residents are trying to why Unfortunately the bills t easily understood Acton regional Dave Whiting says he has received more colli about water bills recently than any other single subject since he took office In December And he can blame people for being confused by their bills It took him numerous colls to hove the system properly ex plained to him The bottom line The cost of water and sewer service is up Because of a deficit last year In the water and sewers account In the neighborhood of rates have been pushed up substantially Before leaving office at the end of November tho old regional council decided to put the rates up 23 per cent Whiting recalled In an interview thia week The new rates went in to effect on March but only half of Acton has re ceived their bills so far so half the people haven t felt the Impact yet Last year the minimum water charge was a month or every two months Most residents receive their water bills every two months The minimum sewer charge which equalization of across Helton in 1B80 was on municipal tax bills was a month or for two months As of the start of last month those rates have Jumped over a month each The minimum water charge Is now a month or 48 every two months and TO for sewer charge a month or 3d for two months So even if you ve been away for two months you still must pay for water and sewer service up from In 1980 Rates go up from the minimum baaed on con sumption Questions about water and sewer bills are to be directed to extension 374

bills ore hand led for Hills As least Whiting hopes so Whiting thinks people have read so much of region fnanclal errors such as two years In a row of deficits that when they saw bills were up they wondered if the region had made more mistakes Then they discovered the bills I easily understood The key to un landing the water bills is realizing that there is a direct relation ship between water con sumption and sewer charge Regardless II your metre measures the water consumption In gallons or cubic metres you are charged on the basis of is 12 cents a cubic metre a month A cubic metro Is equal to gallons he notes The amount of sewage coming from a home t measured The sewage surcharge Is based on consumption The region figures every drop of water used Is going back Into the sewer stem However people water lawns and fill swimming pools To moke an allowance for tl at fact sewer charges only go up to 10 gal Ions If a person used gallons they pay for all the water but only pay sewer charge on 10000 gallons Whiting explained To determine sewer the region char cents per cubic water consumed and then gives the an automatic per cent discount North Star Nylon JOGGERS S 19 acton family
