We have had a similar situation in Baltimore, not with water but everything else. For years the City drove anyone with a dime, or anyone who had a business out with their tax policies and dumbass regulations. Then they found themselves the hole in a large wealthy donut of suburbs. Of course they then tried to extend that long taxing arm out but everyone out here has the attitude that they'd build a mote first before giving into their demands. The recent RE boom and boom in government spending has lifted them up somewhat and the whining has abated somewhat, but in the next downturn I expect the demands to resume.

Kwami was on the news saying he thought the move was not legal. Actually, he comes out of this looking ok vs the council and maybe that was his ploy.
