Plevna resident says monthly water bill tops $200; council to investigate
Summary
Resident Stacy Hennessy told the Plevna Town Council her monthly water bill “is regularly running over $200” despite new appliances and no detected leaks; the council agreed to review her usage history and account data to search for a cause.
Stacy Hennessy told the Plevna Town Council during public comment that her household's water bill "is regularly running over $200," and that she has had a plumber inspect the home and found no leaks. Hennessy said the home has new appliances, including a tankless hot water heater, and that there are three adults and no children in the household — which she said made the high bill puzzling.
Councilwoman Michelle Gray suggested the tankless hot water heater "could be contributing to the high usage," and the council directed Clerk/Treasurer Ashley Martin and Water/Wastewater Operator Sam Thielen to review Hennessy's billing and meter data and report back with possible causes and remedies. The council did not take formal action at the meeting; members said they will follow up with the resident.
