City Council seeks members for
water and wastewater rates committee
The City Council is seeking citizen input regarding water and wastewater rates
through a resident-lead committee.
The City Council established the Water and Wastewater Rate Advisory Committee at
the Sept. 6 City Council meeting. The committee will review water and wastewater
utility rates, review options to implement the cost of service, and make
recommendations to the City Council. The committee's responsibilities also include
communicating and educating the community about water and wastewater rates.
One of the City Council's top priorities is to restructure the water rate. This summer
the City Council adopted a temporary flat volumetric rate of $4.36 per 1,000
gallons. The city contracted NewGen Strategies and Solutions to conduct a water
and wastewater utility rate study and proposed a rate structure change.
