Pitman council agrees to credit resident $295.65 after 45,000‑gallon water use from burst pipe
Summary
After an Administrator report that a N. Oak Ave. resident used about 45,000 gallons during a pipe burst while on vacation, council agreed to prepare a resolution and reimburse $295.65 for the excess usage at the next meeting.
Administrator McCafferty reported that a resident on North Oak Avenue experienced a pipe burst while on vacation, which flooded the basement and resulted in roughly 45,000 gallons of water use. The resident requested some relief for the additional usage and asked for a credit of $295.65.
Council agreed that the credit was appropriate and directed staff to prepare a resolution and reimbursement for consideration at the next council meeting; the minutes record agreement but do not show a formal vote beyond ‘Ayes all’ for procedural motions.
