In today's paper it was announced that Ohio American Water is requesting another water/sewer rate increase. 20-26% for water and 12% for sewer. It will be much harder  to fight this time because the legislature cut the  funding for the Ohio Consumer's Counnsel by 50%.  OAW convenientley waited until the state budget was passed  and the reduction to the  funding  of the OCC  was final. 

Perhaps it's time to point back to an article that appeared in the Spring issue of the Herald which was an update on the legislation that had been introduced to put some limitations around these incessent rate increases!  Here's the link to the story.... http://docs.neighborhoodlink.com/resources/419119/herald22.pdf?AWSAccessKeyId=0C2W8NMC9MHASRBVPN02&Expires=1310521570&Signature=4eAZxCsCF7xQEX2CN3TbI4R9EHQ%3D

Exactly where were our representatives when we needed them to stand up for us???

Well, forget the link idea...it didn't work.  Please manually navigate to our home page, then to "Our Info" and you'll see the Spring 2011 issue of The Herald, page 2 is the OAW Update....in there are names and addresses of people who won our votes and should have been there for us.
