If your water bill reveals anything at all about your personal finances then you have bigger problems than whether I can see it or not.

Is it nice to be able to compare my irrigation usage to that of my neighbors to determine if I am using too much water? Yes. Is it necessary that I be able to do that? No. Do I care if others can see how much water I use? No. Is there any personally identifiable information on my water bill? Absolutely not.
People who want to know the vacation patterns of potential home burglary victims would LOVE to know your water usage habits.

If they see you don't use much water (other than sprinklers) during the months of June and July, they'll have a nice addition to next year's list of easy pickin's.
