Don't touch my TV lineup woman! 

HAHAHAHA, yeah, our kids get their flapping yap from me, that must be it..

Hey try paying it when you dont even have Sewer service! We get city water but those of us in acre TF on on septic. Nowdays you even have to pay a yearly fee for a worker to come and check that it is working properly, making it even more pricey than just being on Sewer; no benefit there.

Then you don't have to pay for the sewer service part of the bill, do you?

Yep! We do. I dont know about the new charges, I am talking to my husband now to see if he has seen this yet.
The city or county rather already requires that we pay 200$ a year for the maintenance company that does nothing but checks that everything is working; which I dont mind since we have had neighbors that dont care for the systems  But if something goes wrong with my system *I* pay for it, not the city and therefore tax payers. And if something goes wrong with the cities system that we dont use, I apparently pay for that too!! 

Sshh, let them keep paying our ours may go up to 17 bucks!

Well I better call and double check to see if we get the hit too; before they have one huge pregnant woman screaming about where our *hit goes...so why should we pay for the whole dang cities?

I was't complaining, I'd much rather it all go safely somewhere else.  But I was curious as to what specifically the council's role was.  TY Glowdog!

I am not moving the flat screen to the garage, end of discussion.  But if he wants the bedroom tv, he can have it.

See, I can be a reasonable negotiator when I want to be.
