Motion To: Waive Fee as a result of a Water meter/Billing issue COMMENTS - Current Meeting: Supervisor Jiava explained that due to faulty radio reads from an improper installation, a gentleman in the water district who always had a low bill received a much larger bill once the radio system was put in. She said, "The bill was three quarters, I believe, and the total was approximately $200." Councilman Ciccarelli asked what the difference in the average billing that he had prior and that should be waived. Supervisor Jiava said that it is on the paperwork that she handed out to the board identifying the radio reads. Councilman Kuzmicz asked if we could get a definitive answer on this. Supervisor Jiava said that they really cannot get that definitive an answer, but the meter was receded. Councilman Beale moved to waive a fee. The board agreed. The resident's name was not mentioned.
