Good morning!!! Here are some updates from the Water Department.
1) Effective November 1, 2023 there will be a change in rates....
The base fee will stay the same $30 for water and $55 for the sewer. However everyone's first 2,000 gallons will be included in the base. So that means if you use 2,000 gallons or less your water bill will only be $85.
2,000-5,000 gallons will be $8.40 per thousand gallons (that's what it is now)
5,000-10,000 gallons the fee will go up .60 to $9.00 per thousand gallons
10,000 gallons or over the fee will go up .90 to $9.90 per thousand gallons.
This new rate structure is the same as all the other local water departments surrounding us. This will also help out some people in this community.
2) SEWER SEWER SEWER- please keep in mind that grease, flushable wipes, feminine hygiene products should not be going into your sewer line. The only thing that should be going down your toilet is toilet paper. Nothing but liquids and food should be going down the drains. We have had an increase in people stopping up the sewer lines because of things they are putting down there.
Thank you.
