Water Bill Investigation: Councilman Demands Answers from Water Department
News 8 continues to receive emails from viewers who are upset over water bills that are hundreds and in some cases thousands of dollars higher than normal. San Diego District 6 Council Member Chris Cate said since News 8 launched its water investigation last week, his office has been inundated with calls. “This is just not explainable and we need to know what is happening. We have seen instances where we have seen 400 percent increases in a person’s water usage in one billing period,” said Cate.
