Residents urge longer notice before water shutoffs
Summary
Two residents told the council a 10-day notice period is insufficient before water shutoffs for nonpayment and asked for extended notice or policy changes; council did not record an immediate policy change.
During the public comment portion of the April 13 meeting, residents Guido Bini and Traci Eccles told the council that a 10-day notice period prior to shutting off water service for nonpayment is insufficient. They asked the council to reconsider the notice timeline used before disconnections occur.
Council did not adopt a policy change during the meeting; the minutes record the concern but do not show a follow-up action or response that changed the notice period. The item remains a public comment and is unresolved in the minutes.
