To the Editor:

I’ve been a Long Beach Township resident and homeowner since 1993. I live here full time with my wife, Marilyn. My home is a duplex and we occupy the upstairs. The downstairs two-bedroom apartment is only used about 10 weeks out of the year. The rest of the time it’s usually empty.

Back in 2020 LBT informed every homeowner that starting in 2022, all houses would need to have water meters installed and inspected at the homeowners’ expense. We complied.
