After a 2-year hiatus, the Philadelphia Water Department will once again shut off the water for delinquent residential customers, but they're giving people an opportunity to avoid a shutoff.
Starting Wednesday, some workers will be shutting off service to customers if they have unpaid bills totaling more than $1,000 and haven’t signed up for water bill assistance or enrolled in a payment plan.Search Continues For Hit-And-Run Driver Who Left Woman Critically Injured, 2 Girls Hurt In West Philadelphia
“For those who do get a shutoff notice, we need them to reach out to us right away,” Brian Rademaekers, a water department spokesperson, said. “If you haven’t gotten shut off yet, it’s not too late. You can still enter into a payment program, you can request a customer assistance application. Just by requesting that application, that will give you some time to avoid a shutoff.”
