The Labor Department reported July wholesale prices fell 0.1 percent, a slight decline that outpaced expectations.

City to raise water rates for larger users
Frederick voters will see higher six month water bills after the Board of Aldermen approved new rates. The plan ties charges to usage with a base service fee by line size and a $1 per 1,000 gallons up to 12,000 gallons semiannually, plus a surcharge for consumption over the limit. Some low-use residents under 9,000 gallons may pay less, but most households using more than 12,000 gallons will incur higher totals.
