City calls new water meter project a 'success' despite reports of flooded homes

MORE: https://abc6onyourside.com/on-your-si... Some Columbus homeowners are reporting thousands of dollars in property damage and potential increases in insurance rates following their participation in the city's Enhanced Meter Project. The project, which has seen nearly 50,000 meters upgraded in the past eight months, has resulted in damage to 150 homes, city officials said. One homeowner, who wished to remain anonymous, captured images of the aftermath of her mandated installation appointment with VEPO Metering, a subcontractor for the city. She claims her installer did not shut off her water before starting the upgrade and water flooded her basement for nearly a half an hour. More crews had to come to her home to shut off her water streetside. #ColumbusWater #SmartMeterProblems #HomeFlooding #PropertyDamage #ABC6Investigates #ColumbusOhio #UtilityFail #HomeownerBeware #WaterBillWoes #ConsumerAlert #LocalNews _______________ Stay up to date with our social media: WSYX on Facebook:   / wsyxabc6   WSYX on Twitter:   / wsyx6   WSYX on Instagram:   / wsyx6   Subscribe to WSYX on YouTube:    / @wsyxabc6   Daily News Playlist:    • 6 On Your Side   For more information, visit https://abc6onyourside.com/ Have a news tip?
