Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Electricity and water, paying the whole bill

[Elizabeth Magill (pastorlizm]

Our water is one whole bill, and we don't figure individual household usage.

I'm confused as to why you would WANT one single bill if you are going to 
charge based on usage.

We have a challenge right now that electric to the carports is not individually 
metered. WHen that was for lights the amount was insignificant, but now that we 
have electric cars we wish it was metered.
