Description
Is there any limit to the length of the City of Clawson's tentacles into our business? I went on two month long vacations starting in late May 2017. When I returned from the second trip I had a letter waiting for me stating that the City was concerned that I was not using enough water.
1) I am not required to notify the City when I am going on vacation.
2) I am not required to tell the City where I am going.
3) I am not required to notify the city when I plan to return from vacation.
The implication is that I am stealing water. Well go ahead and officially charge me with that offense, get a warrant, and based on my attorney's advice you may or may not be allowed to enter my home.

Yes, after 62 years living in this City I have had enough. A DPW that does little more than they are forced to do, charges for sidewalks that I do not have and a 7 year window before they will have the money to install them, temper tantrums by DPW employees, passing the buck on maintaining public rights-of-way, no police patrol. and on and on.
Mayor Luebs is now involved and will be working to remove the threats from the letter which never should have seen the light of day.
I am disappointed that the DPW would not back up their THREATS with charges of stealing water. I was looking forward to a nice cash settlement for shutting off my services.

However, I do not understand how something so objectionable is not reviewed by the City Attorney before it becomes official.
