Dear Editor
Re: Put a real value on water –charge for it, Our View, Burnaby NOW, Sep. 18.
Further to your article on water metering. I think it’s high time that Burnaby scrapped the flat rate for utilities. I am a single residential owner, and over the last few years construction in my neighbourhood (South Slope) has skyrocketed with huge houses being built and at least eight people living in them.
Why should I have to pay the same rate when they are all taking showers/baths, laundry etc.? I think this is totally unfair, and if they received a water bill every month they might get a shock!
