Subject: Disconnection from Sydney Water
Hi Bob
I've taken the liberty to use the email
list and to wish you well for this
weekend, hope this is OK. I saw the
article in the local newspaper today
featuring you & your place, well done.
I did notice that the reporter has quoted
you as saying that "you have to pay for
the connection anyway.." about the Sydney
Water connection. Just wanted to let you
know that I have fully disconnected from
Sydney Water for both water supply &
sewerage. Michael Mobbs was the driver for
getting Sydney Water to change their ways
& they have now introduced a new policy
allowing this using a relatively simple
process, similar to other utilities such
as the gas, phone & electricity. By doing
this I am now NOT paying any connection
fee to Sydney Water, I am no longer their
customer. My past bills from Sydney Water
consisted of a separate fixed charge for
both water supply & sewerage treatment, so
I expect you could at least stop the water
supply fixed charge. Come & have a look at
my place some time to see what could be
done to also stop the sewerage costs, or
give me a call.
See the link below for guideline to
disconnect.
