Good evening Illinois, Sean, Rod, and John!
Was another rainy day here in the River City, all of this rain is filling in our rain deficit.

Rick, are they "taxing" it because of the storm sewers being connected somehow to the sewage treatment plant or just being money grabbers?

That is correct John. People are moving out of Peoria right and left but there are no buyers, lots of homes for sale.

So the more it rains the more you pay. I can't believe it's even happening with all the people carrying guns, I'd be very afraid to be a politician in that state...
