      Not for me though. Using no water at all would not have decreased my payment. Using 10x as much as normal would not have increased my payment. I did not have the option to opt out of or reduce the HOA fee.

      Functionally, that’s “free”, so far as it affects usage habits. Kinda like universal healthcare, “free” at point of service.
