Default PSE&G - Current Wesmont Home Owners

Has anyone else had issues with PSE&G Billing and meter reads in the Wesmont Station complex? I live in one of the Capitol Townhomes and have had nothing but trouble thus far. At first I wasn't receiving bills despite having registered immediately after closing. Now it seems like the bills are inaccurate based on the square footage and energy efficient appliances and building materials that Pulte boasts about in this complex.

Any help would be appreciated!

So you think everyone in Westmont station prefers to buy their food in Walmart? That is really not saying much about how discerning they are. But if I were buying in Westmont station, I would be concerned that there is still not a single retail location filled anywhere in all of the Avalone buildings. That is not bringing value to the community.

two points:
- the demand for retail space will increase proportionally to the growth of community as its primary customers; before that it may not be financially sound with high rent asked by avalon;
- who would pay more for the same groceries you can buy cheaper in walmart, and lately walmart does supply competitive fresh and organic products

I agree with @sasha... once the community starts filling up and Ingerman starts finishing the rental townhomes they are building on other end, stores will start opening. At present there arent enough residents to financially make sense to have the stores.

Even after Walmart was the first mover in raising the retail minimum wage?

Costco is the #2 or #3 retailer in the US, you should give them a try. They pay their employees on average $21/hr, not including overtime and the average employee tenure there is ~5 years, which is really high for retail. My kids love Costco. They have double wide shopping carts, kid-sized food samples, and delicious pizza!

To other Westmont Station residents, has anyone noticed a growing issue of people leaving their dog's... discharge... all over the grounds? Given the many stations the development has set up, I find it unacceptable that people are not cleaning up after their pets.

There is one woman in particular who I have now come to find out doesn't even live within the development who drives in, lets her dogs out of the car, and then drives off. I have asked her very kindly if she wouldn't mind picking up after her dogs, to which she threatened my life (not kidding). I just feel it's not right that people are using private property of homeowners who paid quite a good deal of money as a dumping ground. For residents of the townhomes, the woman drives an Audi SUV (license plate has been given to Avalon management).

I have notified Avalon's management, but don't know if there is a similar management company to voice concerns to for the Pulte development?

I am open to the idea that I am overreacting, but I think it's highly disrespectful, and as I mentioned, people paid good money for those townhomes + the complex has done a great job setting up stations throughout for pet owners to use.
