Oswego’s Water Bill Raise

To The Editor:

According to ABC and several other networks, people in Flint, Mich., are charged $864 a year for water-sewer usage.

This is double the national average.

Last year, Oswego city charged a majority of its residents $888.

This year, it was raised in Oswego to $1,064, two and a half times the national average.

A raise of $53 each quarter.

We have one half a winter gone; must have saved a ton of money on the usual sand, salt, overtime and maintenance.

Yet the streets are in the worst shape I’ve seen in years of winters.

What terrible start to this year.
