I agree. Or charging for clean ones, if you don’t want clean ones you can use what is already on there, lolyep starting the first of the year 47.00 just to be hooked up.
City charges a month meter "rental" fee as well depending on size of pipe coming in,
And then MDU charges for every electric meter and the one gas meter , Gas is currently $1.90 a day.
Before the motel gets a drop of water , or a charge of electricity or an sniff of natural gas I have well over 200 in meter rental fees. which I think is BULL that would be like me renting out a room and then charging for sheets and towels.
