Re; Britain,

They are charged in part of their sewage fee if water drains from their roof into a council owned storm drain. We pay sewage treatment fees the same here in the USA on our water bills. If your subsidised council flat has room in the kitchen for a washer, you are allowed to have one. Don't believe all you hear or read before researching. I know a few accross the pond.
 
I don't see bills here but surely the institution gets charged for 'drainage' even though it just runs down the street into the creek. 

Austin charged a line item for 'street maint/drainage', something like $1.50/mo for running the sweeper every other week and letting rain run down the street to the creek.  Doesn't sound like much, but x 100,000 residences that's $1.8M they're soaking the public per year for something that should be covered by property taxes which of course go up yearly.

 

How long before there's a line item for exhaling carbon dioxide and a fart tax on vegetarians?
 
Well Rick,

there won't be a need for a fart tax once other smarter ways of doing things is done. Our son in law is currently involved with a North Carolina company now developing and selling wood pellets that are made into several things, one being bio fuels.Lawrencville Ga. fuels it's garbage collection fleet with bio diesel made from discarded restaurant frying oil. It's emissions are not harmfull. Tesla is developing glass batteries for electric cars which have much much longer range and life. Glass is an excellent insulator. The cost will be way less than current batteries available, so an electric car with a range of 400 miles will be here, more viable, and faster charging times. Folks thought Edison, Bell, and Tesla were nuts too.
