When we received a higher-than-usual bill, I requested an audit of our
account. This seemed to resolve the problem.

Odette and D. Williams,
Thank you for your messages. Nothing seems to be leaking. I have a new pipe
from the street to the house.
Iâll try Cindy tomorrow.

I called Councilwoman Mary Pat Clarke's office about this for a neighbor a
couple of days ago - apparently this has been happening to other folks across
the city and it's because the bureau of water and waste water at the city is
starting to use a different system (trying to upgrade finally) - and it has a
few hic-ups now and then. Call Mary Pat Clarke's office, Cindy (her staff
person) can help. Or call the customer service number on the bill, and they
will probably tell you the same thing and re-work the bill.
Hope this helps.

That can not be right, unless there is a problem with a water line break?
Noticed any sediment in your water?

Christine,
By all means, have the city send someone out to re-check your meter! Just
call the number on your statement for billing inquiries. Last summer, I got a
water bill for $900 when the meter reader inverted two numbers.
Also, you can check for a slow leak in your commodes by putting cold
coffee or a cola in your toilet tanks. If there's a slow leak, the water in
the bowl will turn brown. In all likelihood, the folks in the utilities
department will suggest this, so it's good to be able to tell them you've
already checked this possibility (As if a slow leak would increase your total
water usage by a factor of ten...!).
Hope this helps!

Has anyone elseâs water bill jumped like mine has?
My last two bills have been about $90 for 10 cubic feet of water. (I donât
know how much that is.)
The bill I received yesterday is for $470 for 116 cubic feet of water.
Nothing has changed in my life!
Is it possible to get another reading of the water meter?
Has this jump in water use happened, without a reason, to anyone else?
Thank you,
Christine Gray
