What it does

Residents get better tracking of water and energy use Smart meters (devices that measure utility use) will be installed at 899 South Cleveland Avenue public housing, letting residents and the housing agency monitor consumption more accurately.

The bigger picture

May help the housing agency cut costs and waste Accurate utility tracking can reveal waste, reduce overall expenses, and free up money for other housing repairs or services at the public housing site.

What to watch

Installation costs and ongoing fees fall to the housing agency The equipment and maintenance will add costs to the public housing budget, which could affect other services unless the savings from lower utility use offset the expense.
