Tuscaloosa is recovering from the pandemic, but some still need aid

But not every area of the city’s finances is immediately bouncing back. Currently, there is cumulative $1.3 million difference between what’s been billed and what’s been collected in fiscal 2021 by the Water and Sewer Department.

Much of that shortfall has resulted from the grace period imposed last year by Mayor Walt Maddox that prevented water and sewer services from being disconnected for delinquent water and sewer customers.
