Reply to comment by WVPrepper in EXCLUSIVE: Maryland gubernatorial candidate Wes Moore owes $21,000 in delinquent Baltimore City water bills by mindfulminx

I assumed he drained it. Which may or may not be the case. After revisions the pool isn’t the issue. I feel a little foolish for the mistake.

Cool. I had an ABOVE-GROUND pool and we did not drain that one... An in-ground pool should NEVER be drained off-season, since the ground freezing will cause the shell to crack if the weight of the water is not pushing back against it. Plus, their pool is heated, so they could be USING it in winter.

I don’t have a pool and what you are saying makes sense. The issue is the amount of time he didn’t pay His bill, it were only a few months I won’t think much of it. I am just a little disappointed he would let it go for so long. I still plan to vote for him. The Mosby’s went 12 months without paying their water bill many people weren’t too happy about that.

I get the bill in the mail for mine about 50% pf the time. They come every 3 months, so that is 5-6 billing cycles.

And the mail service has been very sketchy... both my replacement license and my new credit card just disappeared en route.

I do not understand why my house, JUST over the county/city line would be $28/3months and theirs is SO HIGH!

I live in the city, we get a monthly bill and mine is around $75 3 adults. If I pay a monthly bill late it will show up on the next billing cycle. The city maintains city and a good portion of county water but the city has to make up any losses and the only way is to raise rates on city residents.

Weird. My bill is FROM the city, but comes every 3 months. I pay on the same website you do.
