Calvert Council Studies Utilities Rate Increase
Calvert City Council weighs raising water sewer and garbage rates as Lone Star Gas and Gulf States Utilities seek higher electrical charges. Auditor Glen Brewer says 1972 ended in the black but inflation and expenses will require more revenue next year. Discussions cover a new garbage truck police car and historic marker placement. A 10 percent utility rate rise was debated but deferred pending utility settlements. The council favors appointing a Black member to represent city interests and reviews housing authority eligibility. Street sealing and FCC approval delays cited. Group insurance for city workers rejected as unnecessary.
