Water districts "can't be wrong"

This letter is to inquire how many residents of Fallbrook had their water bills go up outrageously for the May service period – approximately 34 days. Our bill was doubled and no more water was used than the month previous.

The bill showed we used about 125k gallons more than we have ever used in 15 years! I spoke to a friend of mine here in town who had her water bill jump 33 percent and she has watering on timers, using the same water amount every week. We have sprinklers that are turned on twice weekly.

I get no answers from the water company except they “can’t be wrong!” I feel all of us should get some expert advice and push back!

This problem concerns Fallbrook and Rainbow districts. Contact me by email at [email protected].
