Did someone shoot Richard Irwin?
An interesting dialogue in the Messenger about the admissibility of latent fingerprint evidence.
If you don't spend any time in Baltimore City and spend all of your time in Harford County and use no city water then there should be no reason to have to pay a water bill. Fair is fair.
Don't you want your City Council President to live in your city? Just asking.......
I never thought I'd defend Jack Young, but my wife and I routinely get charged the minimum for water usage. I don't even think that we try that hard to conserve water!
So the fact that he has minimum water bills isn't much evidence that he doesn't live in the city. The more concerning thing should be his need to vigorously defend himself.
Would it be difficult to stake out his two houses for a few days to see if he actually shows up at either of them?
Those that live on the East Side are stoop sitters, and quite good at it. You don't need to stake out the houses, just ask the people hanging around outside if they have seen Mr. Young lately.
Anon, my experience is the same as yours. I have lived in a city rowhouse for almost 4 years. Except for last quarter, when we got an estimated bill due to the weather, we have always been billed the minimum. That's with two adults and a baby, so I would imagine we use a fair amount of water.
It does seem self serving that Mr Young would be trying to eliminate the minimum charge if he is indeed living out of the city. I don't agree that there should be no minimum, though. If your home has water and sewer service the city still needs to maintain the lines, even if you aren't using it. I suppose an option would be to itemize bills to have a service charge, delivery charge, water charge, much the way BGE does the gas bill. I have a feeling we'd be paying the same either way.
