  1. The water department will also steal your money and cut your water off. Then be rude at the desk as you pay your bill because the first time you do it they pocket the money. Oh and it was around 3:28 when i showed up and was going to pay because everyone needs water. They wouldn’t let me swipe the card because if it were paid before 3:30 they would of had to turn the water back on. My mothers receipt read 3:31 so my 60 year old mom had her water cut off even though she paid it and then i went the day they cut it off and paid it. Thanks Dayton
