Rend Lake Water Rates Among Lowest In Illinois
Rend Lake currently serves 60 cities and districts across seven counties, supplying about 160000 people daily from a plant that pumps about 15 million gallons per day with capacity up to 22 million. The district argues rate increases occur only every five years and emphasizes its unusually low rates due to efficiency, while Marion weighs a new reservoir to lock in long term lower costs and avoid Bend Lake reliance.
