Woman Receives $16,000 Water Bill
From 7 San Diego:
An Escondido woman was shocked to receive her water bill, saying she owed $16,000 for roughly a month’s worth of service.
Margaret Kreusser tells NBC 7 that she usually uses around 150 gallons of water a day, which is pretty standard for a single woman. But the Escondido Utility Billing Department said her water rate jumped to more than 87,000 gallons a day and told her she needed to pay up.
