My mother told me that she helped conserve water since it was a drought and that because everyone stopped using water, the water company realized it was losing profits so it jacked up the prices after the fact.
Seems she's not the only one to notice.
This should have happened the other way around. Jack up the price to reflect the lower supply and watch usage drop. This makes them look like economic idiots.
