The I-Team previously helped Englewood resident Darlene Robinson after she received an enormous water bill from the city.

A Back of the Yards family received a shocking $20,000 City of Chicago water bill. Alderman Raymond Lopez says they're not the first ones.After that story aired, another family in Chicago called the ABC7 I-Team, saying they too received a water bill that left them in shock."This is ridiculous. We just don't understand why our water bill is so high, and how the city thinks we can pay a high amount of $20,000 for water," said Katherine Herrera.

Instead, the family said, they received a letter from the city, informing them their water meter has been running continuously, indicating there may be a leak."They kind of just dismissed us like, 'Oh, it's your bill. You have to take care of it. We can't do anything about it,'" Katherine said.
