Hi GG:

I have lived in a number of states over the years, some locations where two separate meters were required (outside/inside) and The Villages is the most expensive. Perhaps you are not surpassing the first of three tiers. a three tier system exists here but as I recollect in reading those mansions on the waterways farther south have only one tier.

A three tier system tells me The Villages is concerned about residential use. Yet our water district allows Nestle to pull millions of gallons from our water sources free . When Florida residents pushed for intelligent growth developers and real estate people threw millions of dollars to get it defeated.

so with a three tier system intent on intimidating people to conserve while developers and realtor get richer build more of a demand for water well......

and I haven't even introduced what smart meters are going to do to control the way people will live........Hey the lady on Fourth Ave Apt A stop washing your clothes twice a week and flush only after the second use. How many times we got to tell you

Your conscious
