Utilitv Bill Discussion <br /> Deb Marty explained Jeff Traxler has requested to address the Council <br /> regarding a high usage utility bill that he received in December 2017 for <br /> usage from October 24th to November 20�". Ms. Marty added that service <br /> orders had been generated twice for Pine River Sanitary District <br /> employees to test the water meter and it was verified the meter was <br /> working properly and there could have been a hose or sink left running, a <br /> leaky toilet, etc. that could have generated the high water usage. <br /> Jeff Traxler, 31394 Pau1 Circle, Pequot Lakes addressed the Council. Mr. <br /> Traxler stated he did not have any leaks that would justify this kind of <br /> usage and does not use much water on a regular basis. <br /> Council Member Swanson suggested that the City remove the meter and <br /> have it tested. Andy Schwartz with Pine River Area Sanitary District <br /> stated that they have yet to have a faulty meter that has been tested <br /> adding that it has always ended up being a hose or sink left running or a <br /> leaky toilet which equates to a lot of water usage. <br /> COUNCIL MEMBER AKERSON MOVED TO TAKE A THREE MONTH <br /> AVERAGE OF WATER AND SEWER USAGE AND ISSUE A CHECK <br /> TO MR. TRAXLER FOR THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS AND THE <br /> HIGH USAGE UTILITY BILL HE RECEIVED ALONG WITH THE <br /> REPLACEMENT OF THE WATER METER AT THIS LOCATION. <br />
