Clarks approves new water rates effective May 1
Summary
After reviewing an NRWA water-rate study, the Clarks Village Board approved Resolution 2026-0311.2 to set water service at $72.15 flat plus $2.95 per 1,000 gallons, effective on May 1; sewer rates were left unchanged.
The Clarks Village Board of Trustees voted March 11 to raise water rates by approving Resolution 2026-0311.2. The board set a flat water charge of $72.15 plus $2.95 per 1,000 gallons; the rate change will take effect on bills issued May 1.
Trustee James Parsons moved to approve the resolution with the new water rates and Trustee Chris Langley seconded; the resolution passed on a 4-0 roll-call vote with one trustee absent. The board reviewed a water-rate study prepared by the Nebraska Rural Water Association (NRWA), which recommended adjustments; the minutes record that sewer rates do not need to change.
The resolution and rate schedule were adopted as part of routine business. The minutes do not record further detail about projected revenue or specific operating-budget impacts; the clerk and staff will incorporate the new rates into the May billing cycle.
