Not too applicable to Dadeville, but I thought some might find this approach as serious business,

Feb, one city in Mississippi tried that crap (on a much smaller scale--it's really an impact fee) and the builder's association took the city all the way to the MS Supreme Court and won. City had to pay back fees already collected.

You better hurry up and get out of that part of the world and stop reading that news rag!! You'll like the way we do business!

Don't know for sure but the sewage and water charge are in one bill, and sewage is based upon amount of water usage. About thirty to forty buck per month for two people (my situation), but I am not in same town. At the Lake, I pay about the same amount to the Parker Creek Water Company just for water. I am responsible for my own septic system.

Strange world.

The politicians can get real creative when it comes to taxing unlike their efforts to solve real problems like the Dadeville sewer thing.

In Roswell they are pushing a concept, that is being presented on local cable, that dealing with water runoff costs the city and the more equitable way to handle it is to charge each landowner water surharge based on how much runoff the property has (soil coverage absorption etc. It's just another tax of course that won't go away.

This is a big issue comming for folks in the cities. We already have a "price list" for what level of "service" we want.
