Well yet again it's the weekend of the 4th of July, I came home from work and the water had been off all day w/o any notice this would be occuring yet again, but they turned it back on around 6:30pm thursday w/note it would be off friday 8-6 when most residents are off for the holiday, but I guess the brains of this outfit decided perhaps they should wait til Monday the 6th to cont'the "no water" BS again,I've attached the posting and would just like to say I've upheld the terms of my lease but they havent, yet "we" the residents have no known recourse (yet)after living in the worse place to date (I've lived in other states) Ga. is off the hook, oh yeah heard an annoucement that effective july 09' the water rates will increase 12%. Our rates cont' to increase & availability & access to the water cont' to decrease....everybody wants to use their bathroom 1st choice but where we pay the bulk of our income can't even depend on home bathroom being available (WTF). FYI water is life....oh yeah ATTN RESIDENTS: just found out why the property on decline, 1br special is $545 for the 1br's does price make a difference in neighbor quality'''' When I moved in 1br $750 mandatory min 500k renter's ins & rising water bill; always charged for 30dys but frequently dont have water for 30dys (kinda gangsta)
OMG the laundry room is filthy,disgusting, the last 2x i went there was standing water in couple of the washers w/tiny nats or whatever the bugs are that hang around dirty standing water- UGH,I've used the laundry 2x in 7mos. and yes I can afford to buy a set but since I've known like since day 20 of my 365 day contract that I would not be here long I prefer to minimize what I have to move when I do (for the smart a** or staff that will comment about that).

The same thing is happening down the street with the Stratford apartments. I've been a resident their for two years and when I started renting my water/trash bill was $25-30 a month. Now that a new management company called "Conner Group" took over, my water/trash bill has magically escalated to approximately $90 a month for a one bedroom. Of course I asked why and was told that an outside company determines our bill based on apartment sq. ftg, not usage. So you're right, it's just a convenient way for them to charge you whatever they want for rent....Only in Georgia...It's funny, I've lived in a number of other cities in the country and have never experienced this whole $80-100 water bill phenomena that I've endured while in Atlanta, Georgia. Do you know if the company leasing your apartments is the Conner Group?

The Worthing Comapanies,5909 Peachtree-Dunwoody Rd,Ste 400.ATL,Ga. 30328. And they too use an outside company for the water rates but I think its scale by the number of occupants on the lease, but I know there are 1 bedroom units with way more occupants than are on the lease so "we" have to pay for the free loaders usage. (I and other neighbors have aprised mgmt) I also have lived in other states and have never seen anything like this???? Good luck to all
