McGrady's water bill shocks Hendersonville council
State Rep Chuck McGrady filed a bill three days after a county summit, barring cities from charging differential water rates without state approval. Hendersonville officials voiced surprise yet indicated willingness to discuss rate structure and utility responsiveness with county leaders. The measure would let enterprise funds be used for debt, pipelines, and management costs, with Local Government Commission approval for outside-user rates.
