  1. AND SO THEY WILL RAISE YOUR RATES.
    I'M SURE IT'S WHAT WE SAID THEY WOULD DO.
    WILL YOU GET TO CAST A VOTE ON THE NEW DEBT WE ARE ABOUT TO UNDERTAKE AS A TOWN ?
    DID YOU SEE THE LAST BUDGETS OR FINANCIALS FROM THE WATER OR LIGHT DEPT.

  2. Service Charge goes up $10.29 per quarter.

    $237.16 per year for the honor and privilege of being a water customer. For fluoridated water no less! Fantastic! Now I have to change my reverse osmosis filter more often because of the crap they pretend is "just" fluoride is in the water.


    Did the citizens of Templeton get to vote on this project at Town Meeting?
    Anyone else get a 9 % raise where you work?

    Let's just add that increase in on top of a new school, the sewer rate increase and the pending Light dept. increase.

    How are those collections going? Small claims working out for the TMLWP?

    1. Senior Citizens, how much water do you use ? How are you going to pay for this increase, with no increase in your Social Security ? Thank your Water Department for not being able to plan ahead, or as Julie noted, giving the people in this Town the ability to vote on a project of this size. Funny thing is, the people used to have the right to approve these projects, in the past. Who gave away your right to vote ? Think about that.
