Ridgeville sewer bills could skyrocket for commercial users
North Ridgeville proposes switching commercial sewer charges to actual waste water usage, potentially doubling or more bills for many businesses while cutting costs for others. Under the water facilities plan, commercial rates would be $1.10 per 100 cubic feet, replacing estimated formulas. Some retailers face steep increases, yet schools and some firms would see substantial relief. The Utilities committee backing the plan aims for a fall council vote with effect in January.
