Residents push back against sewer system sales, fearing cost By ANDREW MAYKUTH, The Philadelphia InquirerMay 15, 2021 GMT CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa.

Who wants to think about boring wastewater when there’s a pandemic going on? “Then Carol, she did the little thing with a toilet,” said Lilick.

The “little thing” was a simple image that Smith dug up on a Google search, a cartoon commode with a worried expression and the palm of its hand held up. “No to sewer sale,” the cartoon toilet intoned. “Bad for residents, seniors, fixed income.” Lilick said her online posts about sewer rates suddenly found an audience. A Facebook page was launched, local bloggers took note, a petition was organized, and yard signs went up.
