Water rate hike linked to conservation debate in Frederick
Frederick officials disagree on the cause of last week’s water rate increase. Mayor Ronald Young says conservation reduced water use and city revenues, but rates would have risen anyway, potentially slowing the rise if residents conserve. He warns larger costs if demand persists. County official James Shaw notes floodplain rules shift after a court compromise, with stricter development limits to protect basements from flood risk and new standards echoing Howard County.
