East Niles Community Services District, Bakersfield CA

Very rude to me when I ask about $29 dollar fee lady was so rude said I was lucky the didn't raise it a long time ago. The fee is like 42 now and we are on SSI.

I LOVE our water constantly being shut off without proper notice. Especially on a Saturday afternoon. This water district is a complete JOKE.

There are many fine people of whom are gainfully employed there. Each month the fee for being a customer of whom exists with the privilege of being connected to their h20 pressurized system pays above $40 prior to the use of their metered water charges which on the surface might sound as if every residences gets kinda doubled whammies. Let me be clear once upon a time (bc I'm that old) the "USER READINESS" fee did not exist. It started (like most things) under $10 dollars & was about that area of price for some while. Every unnecessary drip or endless running toilet can devastate your PPG charge that goes above & BEYOND that pesky READINESS fee. I live as many others do (excluding govt) on a fixed income, fixed lower than I would choose but fixed it is. Now ACCROSS town like Rosedale for example is the folks @ Vaughn (spelling) water district & it's likely their good people too. We east siders are blessed by comparison Trust & believe bc my fixed income allotment for h20 would easily be doubled with Vaughn CSWD. Thanks East Niles & hey what about that west Nile virus thing? Were blessed SEE!
