EDITOR, The Tribune.

I am a tenant at one of the Government senior citizens apartments complex on Finlayson Street in Bain Town, and since over a year ago we had water leakage going on in the bathrooms, but lately, beginning last week.

There has been an increase of water leaking from the corroded and rusted fixtures in few of the apartments’ bathrooms. It seems gallons and gallons of water per day is now being wasted, on few occasions the Housing department who is the immediate authority in charge of repair works in the apartments were notified, but nothing was done, merely workers and contractors from Housing coming in, and taking pictures repeatedly, and said someone will come in to do the work, yet nothing has been done to date.

I also feel when the tenants receive their water bills that no excessive amount on their water bill should be paid by any of the tenants, only the normal amount that the tenant paid, every time in the past, before the problem, and when they received their bill, hopefully the Water & Sewage Corporation, along with the Housing Department, will understand the reasons of tenants paying in such manner. I also hope that repairs begin very soon so as to end this great water loss.
