Bella Vista, AR, Water Meters Removed Routinely

In Bella Vista the water meters are removed while a rental property is vacant so that the owner does not have to pay the "rental fee" for the meter or for trash pickup.

Water Meters can have many problems during installation.  If it is not seated correctly, it will result in a high water bill.  They do not tell tenants about this practice, they didn't tell me when I called about the high water bill.   Also,  it costs the homeowner over $100.00 to remove and replace the water meter.  This fee is most surely passed onto the tenant.

I wonder what water meter is put back in.  Is it damaged?  Is it old?  It is probably not the same meter.
