Sources say that there about 100 meters actively being used for billing by commercial properties about town.At least a day and a half worth of reading and recording by a city official monthly. For a several years  code on new construction required meters to be installed and a source says use will not probably come till 100 percent of use is metered .That would take a bylaw and maybe a referendum for full compliance in for all consumers.

A meter that had a crack  beside it was being worked on by city crews on the 18th,   just off Voght, at the Best Western Inn. We think meters give an incentive to use water responsibly but come with other challenges like leaks. On balance they are inevitable.
