  • Do you know that Stonehill College is only paying a portion of their usage of the City of Brockton's sewerage system tie-in and the Brockton Rox owe over $75k in past due water bills while the City of Brockton is placing liens on ordinary tax paying citizens who have disputed water bills that may be erroneous due to faulty water meter readings?
