Almost 300 people have signed an online petition demanding something be done about the high cost of water in Port Colborne.
The Change.org petition dubbed 'Fairness & Accountability for Port Colborne Water Bills' calls for the city to complete an audit of the water system and reduce the price of water.
A picture of a water bill for 325 dollars is included in the petition - more than half of the amount is listed as 'fixed charges' while actual usage accounts for only 115 dollars.
During this week's meeting Councillor Gary Bruno did bring forward a notice of motion to develop a preliminary plan of attack to deal with water main leakage.
