What measures can we take to make them pay for their damages - sheriff ?

In fact, I did some learnamication since your post and discovered that I don't really want RUBS at all.As you point out, RUBS (ratio utility billing system) is just a way of dividing up a bill *without* actually measuring individual usage.What I really want is sub-metering.I want to install some water meters and have somebody - maybe me - check on the usage each month and use that to divide up the bill.Potential issues:- Can I divide up the whole bill based on water usage, when the bill in fact includes water, garbage and sewer?
