CFPUA asks that our customers to avoid putting storm debris on top of sewer cleanouts and water meter boxes. Doing so can cause damage to them, both when the debris is piled up and when it gets picked up.
Debris piles also cause trouble with our water meter reading work. If we can’t access the meter, the property enters into our estimated billing process. Future meter reading nails down the exact cost but it usually takes an additional bill cycle to work it out. Neither CFPUA nor our customers want that circumstance to happen, especially when it can be avoided.
