Not really. The water company is raising prices on everyone because we're not using as much, but they still have same overhead. If the whole community hadn't conserved, we'd have gotten more water for the same or lower cost.

If they're like the UK water companies then they'll be moaning they're suffering but still be making vast profits.
It's like "we can't fix the pipe network without increasing water bills and we already put them up 10% this year; oh and we made 20% more profit this year so we must be serving our customers well ....".
