PWSA bill
by Heather Morris 01 Mar '17

01 Mar '17

Hello neighbors, Has anyone else had extremely high PWSA bills due to sewage maintenance/treatment charges, not water consumption, listed on their bill? I have tried to get through to PWSA for an explanation of this charge of over $60 this month and almost the same last month but have been waiting on hold for a long time with 12 people ahead of me. I wrote to our local representative about my general concerns about PWSA. Any other suggestions HP neighbors? Heather

Wrought Iron raillings for sale!
by SusieSlg＠aol.com 01 Mar '17

01 Mar '17

Sorry these are showing the wrong direction but these wonderful and VERY SOLID and HEAVY wrought iron railings are for sale. They can easily be repainted and if bought new today would be very expensive. I had to replace them due to concrete work that had to be done but they will last forever for someone who is looking to put in some railings. I can give exact measurements if anyone is interested. There are 4 railings in all and will sell as set or individually. Only asking $20 each or $65 for all. Let me know if you would like to see them or want more information. Thanks, Susie Sent from my iPhone
