yes please! Unfair for gardeners who just want to water their plants.

This is a great idea and would allow for residents to avoid unnecessary fees.

Been wanting this for years! We shouldn't have to pay the high sewer fees for landscape watering.

I have vegetable gardens for my use only and use a lot of water. Would like to get the deduction in sewer tax

been asking for this for 10 years ! Not fair to pay sewer charge when there is no inflow to the treatment plant!

It's disappointing that Beverly is one of the few cities that doesn't have deduct metering. Many people have water usage that does not enter the sewers at all.

It is a ashamed that the city is collecting for sewer use age when it is not being used. I was told by the city that they are fully aware that we are being ripped off! This is somethings that homeowners want!

I had no idea two water meters was an option. I'm disappointed that my town doesn't have this. Get with the program Beverly. Save a a little money. We need it to counter ever rising taxes and municipal bills.

Salem, Danvers, Peabody, Swampscott, and Ipswich all have deduct meters. My SEWER bill per quarter averages $231 and $381 when watering my grass. That's $300 per year in extra sewer charges! Almost one million dollars of excess money in the sewer account and where do you think some of that money came from? Deduct meters should be made available for a reasonable cost.
