Council grants water-billing relief adjustment for 101 FonClair Street
Summary
The council approved an adjustment to a previously approved water-billing relief for 101 FonClair Street, adopting the City Engineer’s recommendation to base relief on minimum usage due to limited historical meter data and a recently installed meter.
The Johnstown Common Council on March 27 approved a modification to water-billing relief for 101 FonClair Street, adopting the City Engineer’s recommendation to calculate relief based on minimum usage.
City Engineer Christopher J. Vose told the council that the original relief calculation, which used the last three billing cycle averages, resulted in a higher amount than the actual bill because historical meter data were limited and a new meter had been installed. He recommended adjusting the relief to reflect provable minimum usage.
Council Member Bradley Hayner moved to offer relief per the City Engineer’s recommendation; Council Member Max Spritzer seconded the motion. The minutes record the motion passing with four ayes and one absence (Scott Jeffers).
