Expensive either way - guess that's what happens when you have to pipeline water a long way. By comparison, we're a pretty typical family of four here in upstate NY, and we get billed quarterly - runs me about $35 for three months worth of water.

| Our troops give so much of themselves, and we all benefit from their efforts. The next time you look at your bank balance, why not find some way to take some money and put it towards supporting the members of our armed services in some way? Maybe find a family who has someone serving, and buy them dinner, or some groceries, or a gift for their children? Maybe find a way to contribute to a fund for the memory of any of those who have fallen? Our armed forces deserve our support in tangible ways.

But, wait. Kalifornians are deeply concerned about the environment and conservation. So, they don't need meters to convince them to conserve, right? </sarcasm>
Water meters also provide a reasonable basis for charging residents more equitably for services such as sanitary sewer and garbage collection, too, since their usage tends to vary based on the number of people in the residence.
