Saint Jo residents debate water bills
Saint Jo city offices have fielded complaints regarding water bills, especially ones from the month of May, during recent weeks.
There was a special meeting on June 18 covering excessive water bills, and the regular meeting Wednesday night continued that trend.
Only one person appeared to state their concerns.
“We didn’t have a leak or fill a swimming pool,” said Melinda Griffen, on behalf of John Reed.
During dialogue, Griffen expressed her worry the City of Saint Jo isn’t reading water meters on a consistent basis. Water bills for Laverne Willmond, Jana Klyce and Rudene Horner were also discussed.
During the meeting, it was quoted Horner used 225,300 gallons during one month, 14,400 for Klyce, 13,900 for Reed and 14,400 for Willmond.

The following indictments were filed with the 97th District Clerk following the November session of the Montague County Grand Jury.
There were a total of 13 indictments with one sealed awaiting the arrest of a suspect.
A grand jury indictment is not evidence of guilt. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
