PROPOSED RATE INCREASES FOR WATER, SEWER, AND INFLATION

“Cambria residents one and only current opportunity to STOP PAYING out multiple-millions of dollars to Cambria Community Services District retirees, using non-stop water/sewer rate increases.  Take a moment to read in the chart below WHERE your bi-monthly water/sewer bill payments are going. WORST TIME EVER to ONCE AGAIN increase our costs for water and sewer – INFLATION (FOOD, GAS, RENT, TRANSPORTATION, MEDICINE, - EVERYTHING IS GOING UP “Exponentially” AND THE TREND WILL CONTINUE FOR MANY, MANY MONTHS NON-STOP).  Rate increases are never ever, or often enough; they are ALWAYS seeking more and more under the guise of improving our water infrastructure, water quality, and sewer improvements.  How many households does it take just to pay the monthly outrageous retirement checks to CCSD RETIRED EMPLOYEES?
