The aftermath of Hurricane Milton is showing up not just in the physical debris it left behind, but also in the subtler disruptions of daily life, such as the monthly utility billing procedures. As reported by the City of Tampa Utilities, the storm’s impact has hindered staff members’ ability to undertake the usual water meter readings. Hurricane debris and the consequent inaccessibility of meters mean residents will now be receiving estimated utility bills based on their average usage over the past year.
