There hasn’t been too much in the way of water wasting in the city, which suits officials just fine. In rare instances where consumption amounts in individual households have shown a spike from month to month, the problem typically has been dealt with quickly, said Escalon City Manager Tammy Alcantor. “We will send notices, based on billing, just an FYI if their consumption is up from previous years during that billing time,” Alcantor said of residents showing the uptick in usage.
