Can you let me know your average gallons used for irrigation as well as general water use. Got sticker shock on my first water/sewer bill. There was a "Waste Water Residential" charge in excess of $90!!!!!!!

[texas tim]

My june bill was $110. Irrigation $20 water 17. Waste water $56

[PonyPride]

How many zones is your irrigation?

[biscman]

What is waste water??

That a term I have never heard after living in 5 states. Is it sewage?

[PonyPride]

I believe the "waste water" is the sewer fee, and it is calculated based on the gallons used for both household and irrigation use.

Thanks, I figured it was sewage. We pay 92.00 every quarter in the lovely Garden State.

Have a question - we are thinking of buying in St James and if we do we probably would build on the ICW. This area is very far from the entrance. Wonder if that trip to get out of St.James would eventually wear on us? Anyone here live way in the back on the ICW? Thanks

We are at the moment staying in the townhouses adjacent to the marina, yes it is a bit of a trip to get out into Southport however they have obtained all the governmental approvals for the new entrance at the end of St James Drive and now are in negotiations with the landowner for crossing rights..... they "estimate" a year or so and the new entrance will be open, that will get you out onto Midway in just a few minutes.

Stoney,

Are they planning on hooking up St. James Drive by Harbor Walk with Woodlands Park that would lead you over to the Seaside gate? It looks that way from the ariel view, but I have not heard of plans to do so.

Stoney, you have been among the missing here as of late. I thought you would be in your place by now. Delays?
