I agree and would never advocate termination of any common utility service, especially not water. I was careful to say that depending on those things alone and pretending like everything is honkey-dorey 100% is silly.
It was just one example. But stuff like this does happen. Just the other day another nearby city mailed all its residents that there was a problem discovered LAST SUMMER, but all is fine because it’s fixed… now.
I don’t know what the solution is. But it’s scary when it happens.
