Anybody in the area get a big credit on their last bill? I've talked with two neighbors and theirs is exactly the same. Apparently they were charging $55+ for months on the sewer fee when it turn it should have been around $20-23.

Water meters aren't read on a monthly basis like electric. They estimate the monthly usage and correct the bill once they get a true meter reading.

Any chance you just moved in a few months ago? Our sewer fee was around $55 for the first 3 months after we bought our house until they averaged out and credited the difference on month 4.

I walked into my water company office with photos I started taking 1/month of my meter when they tried to bill for 33,000 gallons in one month. Now I have a credit balance that should cover me through the end of this calendar year.

We did in August. Sounds like the exact same thing.
