Wes Moore pays $21,000 water bill after charges are made public

Maryland gubernatorial hopeful Wes Moore paid a $21,200 Baltimore City water bill on Wednesday after a news outlet reported that the last time the bill was paid was in March of last year.

Moore’s campaign said Thursday that the candidate and his wife, Dawn Flythe Moore, were unaware of the bill and “paid the current balance out of an abundance of caution while they review the accuracy of the charges.”

“Voters should know that the Moores paid the bill as soon as they became aware of it,” said Brian Jones, a spokesman for Moore.

Baltimore Brew reported Wednesday that Moore owed tens of thousands of dollars in water and sewer charges and that the couple had not paid the bill over the past 18 months. The Moores made their last payment, $2,000, in March 2021.

Jones would not say whether the Moores received a shut-off or delinquency notice. The city has had a history of sending incorrect bills and of residents being unaware of how much they owe.

  1. If they can’t keep their bill straight on their many properties, they should get rid of some of their properties.
