Rose Creek raises quarterly water and wastewater base fee to $75
Summary
The Rose Creek City Council voted to increase the quarterly base fee for water and wastewater from $50 to $75, adjusting the water and wastewater components to $27.50 each while maintaining a $20 maintenance surcharge.
The Rose Creek City Council voted on June 6 to raise the quarterly base charge for combined water and wastewater service from $50 to $75.
Council Member Mark Conradt moved to increase the base fee by $25 — setting water at $27.50 per quarter and wastewater at $27.50 per quarter — while leaving the $20 maintenance surcharge unchanged. Council Woman Bobbie Greenlee seconded the motion, which Mayor Craig Weis approved.
Clerk‑Treasurer Kristine Allas had described the prior breakdown in the meeting minutes as $50 total per quarter ($15 water, $15 wastewater, $20 surcharge). The council recorded the new base totals in the meeting minutes; the motion passed during regular business and no amendment or effective-date caveat was recorded in the minutes.
The council did not record a discussion of phased implementation, appeals process for low‑income households, or projected revenue impacts in the minutes; those items would require follow up with city staff or at a subsequent meeting.
