Could anyone please tell me what was the amount of the water increase a few months ago. I just compared our last years June billing with this years. We used half the amount total gallons this year and the bill is $2 more this year. If I am calculating correctly, that is almost a 50% increase. Am I missing something? Thanks for any help someone can give me.

The water company needs the increase to pay for the new water tower that is coming.

I sure wish my income was guaranteed to increase every time one of my utilities increased their charges. Guess that won’t be happening! Gonna sign off now cause I need to get a job as a greeter at the water company!😢

North of RP Lumber in the 6 acre fenced in area. The legal notice for zoning was published in the paper last week.

If they're putting it there,then the city is planning for future annexation out to richards rd east to airport rd west to Hillcrest rd. Because putting a water tower there will not supply the whole city. They'll need to keep using the tower on ottercreek st too.

Back to my original question. After some research, here are my findings.
March 2023……water usage charge was 32.34 June 2023……..water usage charge was 55.57
Guess that answers my question.
And so far as a new water tower…..maybe we need a new one. The one on Otter Creek has been there as long as I can remember……..that’s a lllllooooonnnnnngggg time!
