Elk Ridge eyes tardy bill payers

Oh is that what that tiny trickle is coming out of my Tap when I turn it on? Water?

It's hard to tell that those few little drops that trickle out occasionally is actually water.

I don't know why I pay those clowns for water at all, they have the pressure turned so low if you need a glass of water to drink before bedtime, you better get started filling it about lunch. Idiots.

If they turn people's water off, I'm not sure anyone will notice.

I think you should actually get off your duff and contact the city about your lack of water pressure instead of flaming away on line about the lack of pressure, Which by the way unless you have a problem with your system you should have at least 50 psi as per state staute

I like that you used the phrase, "pressure turned so low," as if there is some magic switch that utility personnel control. Do you think the city has some vendetta? If you have low water pressure it could be the lateral connection between your house and the street. If it is not than the solution is generally far more expensive than you realize.

The State only requires the city to provide 20 psi min, not 50.
