I question the billing methods TV utilizes for water. First it is fair that TV meters household water vis a vis irrigation water separately. for those areas where it is one bill most likely has to do with the fact that fresh water is used both inside and outside.

Since irrigation water on the south side is non portable it should be at a reduced price.

What disturbs me the most is TV three tier billing, especially in view of the fact that they also charge a base fee. In addition there are other charges also that simply amount to gouging in my view.

Florida demands water conservation but it hasn't stopped politician from allowing developers to over build nor did they object to Nestle from drawing millions of gallons of water a day just to be carted outside of florida to be bottled. It is all hypocrisy.

Perhaps for some their TV water bill is less than their previous residence but then it only makes it easier for Florida politicians to pull the wool over people's eyes The water utilities are tightly held by politicians and hence developers.

As for Florida's sunshine Laws in my view there are two meeting the one for show and then the real meeting for dough
