Find little tiny inmates, with cameras, and put them in the gas line to see where the leak is. Capitalize on the mayor’s brilliant idea.

It doesn't just affect the people inside the lines of the town. Century reached way out of their boundaries with infrastructure in the 1990 and didn't annex the areas. The infrastructure is failing. So what happens if the gas and water and sewer is cut off for the schools out side their boundaries in the franchise area? The people outside the boundaries of the town have no representative in a municipal vote to dissolve the charter, can't serve on a council or as a mayor, can't vote. Get on the horn to the State Representative if you have a child in a school around there or like the idea of Century CCI having problems. Note the county has no authority unless the incorporation is dissolved via state action, or a vote of the people. You think the people holding the keys and the cars and the jobs and the loans and a few hundred dollars for going to a meeting want to disband? You think the voters who don't know their butts from a hole in the ground will say..yeah make Century disappear, will vote to unincorporate. NO. It will still be here just managed better if under new management. D5 The county has no authority unless the charter is revoked. The state prison being served and the schools being served need to pay attention. It is their monkey and their circus. Century provides Water Sewer and Gas to the STATE prison..don’t forget.

Then have an outside source follow the gas from the "gate station" to the customers meter. Then make an informed decision on what to do next. Rather than just replacing everything right off the bat find exactly where the problem is and only fix the problem.

Simple fix - repair what you can or buy a new one. Especially if it's a customer that uses a large amount. Keep the Town of Century. Pensacola doesn't need any more problems. If I wanted issues, I would move to Century. Most of those that can move, should move. “Missing Gas” – there is and it’s because many of their meters are broke or leaking and the customers show no usage.
