Water bill reform moves to annual minimum for residents
Water Registrar Wallace and the Commissioners approved a plan to abolish quarterly private residence billing and require an annual minimum payment of 450 dollars on July 1. Any water use above 15 000 cubic feet per year will be charged 3 cents per 100 cubic feet. The change aims to simplify billing, with only about 15 percent of consumers receiving additional bills, and is expected to save printing and delivery costs by eliminating four annual bills per consumer.
