Whenever you save water and power, you're definitely saving money down the road.

None of this money was placed in water and sewer surplus, and it therefore had no impact on the fund balance.

It all boils down to the road needs, the water mains need repairing. The sewer needs work.

Out West, there is a saying that water flows to money. But in New Orleans, water flows away from money. Those with resources who control where the drainage goes have always chosen to live on the high ground. So the people in the low areas were hardest hit.

Water is breaking across the road down there.

The water would rise in the road and along the ditch out front, not in our yards. And now we get flooding with as little as an inch of rain.
