Irrigation system: Irrigation for the gardens in front of #32 & #34, and of the small lawn at the corner is fed by #34's water supply via the outside water spigot line. That external supply is tracked by an abatement meter. Every month the owner receives a water bill for all water coming into #34. They also receive a sewer abatement refund for whatever portion fed the external line. At the end of the year, they enter all bill and abatement information into a spreadsheet to figure out how much they paid for the exterior water, accounting for refunds and the annual inspection fee. They then submit a bill to the association for reimbursement. This is the amount that appears in the association's budget as "Irrigation".
