Board confirms annual CPI adjustment for High Rocks and BMR monitoring fees
Summary
The board discussed and confirmed that monitoring fees for High Rocks and BMR will be adjusted annually by CPI; the increase is voted once a year (in November) and affects the following year's bills, not retroactive.
During the meeting the board reviewed old business concerning monitoring fees for High Rocks and BMR and confirmed that fee adjustments tied to the Consumer Price Index are implemented annually. Participants clarified that the CPI adjustment is applied once per year—typically in November—and that any approved increase will appear on the following year’s quarterly bills rather than being applied retroactively.
Board members noted the administrative track for the change: staff will wait for the official CPI release and then update rates for the subsequent billing cycle after the board’s annual vote. No retroactive increases beyond the adopted effective date were authorized at this meeting.
