> what purpose do Water meters serve.
well, in the area where I live, charging for water by usage is the way the water department makes its money to treat the water, which it pumps out of a river.
Now, in reality, the Water Department here is supposed to be self- funding, which it was for decades, until the City realized that it could use it for a cash cow.
It tried to sell the water dept outright but couldn't get it passed by the people.
So, it just made the Water Department responsible for all kinds of things which it never was responsible for.
So, the Water rates went up dramatically over that last 10 years, so water that they get free out of a river and used to treat and pump out nearly for pennies over the years, now cost a fortune…all to subsidize all the liberal agenda
that's the crime
now,nobody can afford food, power or water
