I appreciate your offer to have your committee consider an adjustment in the past water bills for
9 Parkway Place.
As I mentioned today, our house was fitted with a large capacity water meter without our
knowledge. For the past three and a half years we have spent only approximately 35 days a year
in Ithaca. Only two months ago did I inquire why our quarterly water and sewage bill invariably
approximated $300 per quarter. I learned from calling Bolton Point that this was the result of our
having a large capacity meter, and that a more suitable meter would have resulted in
approximately $100 per month. Yesterday, we had installed a water meter appropriate for our
living situation.
My wife and I estimate that over the past 3 1/2 years we paid roughly $2,800 in excess water
charges.
We would appreciate the Village considering refunding this amount to us.
Thank you in advance.
Sincerely,
Jeb Brooks
