Good advice on the rain sensor, especially since using unnecessary irrigation is very expensive. The water charge is minimal, but the sewer usage charge is outrageous, especially considering the water never goes into the sewer system. On another note, I spoke today with a representative of the utilities division and he went over my bills and agreed it does not make any sense. They are sending out someone to see what’s wrong with the meter.
