In a recent city council meeting, officials moved forward with proposed rate increases for water, wastewater, and solid waste service fees after determining that no majority protests were filed against the increases. The council confirmed that the majority owners of the identified parcels, totaling 6,815, did not submit sufficient written protests to halt the proposed changes.
The council unanimously adopted three resolutions: resolution number 6797 for water service fees, resolution number 6798 for wastewater service fees, and resolution number 6799 for solid waste service fees. Each resolution received motions and seconds from council members, followed by roll call votes that confirmed the council's support.
With the absence of majority protests, the city council is now set to implement these rate increases, which are expected to impact residents and businesses across the city. The council's decision reflects a commitment to maintaining essential services while addressing the financial needs associated with them.
