The sheer cost of maintaining all that stuff. If you don't keep up with maintenance cost, it wears out, but it can be 20 years before the deferred maintenance becomes obvious. Do you know where the leaks are in your water line? Do you know how bad they are? Until the line bursts, city hall can stay in denial about it. And they do.
- bigth 5y agoThere is no city hall, I live outside city limits. The water where I live is supplied by a municipal utility district, and this particular one is involved in a lot of projects. They have regular meetings which are public and recorded, and everything is well maintained.
