A residential area in Chaozhou will continue to be charged commercial water fees. The water company stated that in order to reapply for water service, illegal construction must be eliminated.

Mr. Xie, the owner of Juxing Building in Chaozhou City, recently complained that Yuehai Water Supply, responsible for providing water to the residential area, has been charging the residents at commercial water prices for the past few years. On July 25, Pengpai News reported on the matter, and Yuehai Water Supply told them that "the company's suggestion is for the developers, property management, or homeowner representatives to reapply for an account, which will definitely be for residential water use." However, Mr. Xie stated that the issue of commercial water prices has not been resolved. Upon contacting the water supply company Yuehai Water Supply again, the staff said that Juxing Building is an illegal building, and after the water meter was removed, the water used by Juxing Building is actually billed at commercial rates to Chaozhou Impression International Travel Agency Limited's water meter. The company does not have the right to supply water. Currently, the water fee issue for the owners of Juxing Building has still not been resolved.
