Lincoln Park residents are facing steep increases in their water bills, with many expressing frustration at the lack of transparency from the city. Despite Mayor Maureen Tobin's explanation that the hikes are due to rate increases, water treatment costs, and old meters, residents like Sandra Sawicki feel the changes are burdensome, especially for those on fixed incomes.
