Hinsdale water panel denies $462.88 sewer abatement request
Summary
The Hinsdale Water and Sewer Advisory Committee and Select Board unanimously denied an abatement request for a $462.88 flat sewer charge, saying the town bills a flat access rate regardless of occupancy.
The Hinsdale Water and Sewer Advisory Committee, meeting jointly with the Select Board on March 12, denied a homeowners’ request to abate a $462.88 sewer charge.
Jim and Denise Imprescia asked the board to waive the flat sewer charge on an outstanding bill. Committee member Margaret moved to deny the abatement; Ray seconded the motion, and the board voted unanimously in favor of denial. The minutes record the body's position that the town charges a flat sewer access rate “regardless of whether you reside in the property.”
The decision leaves the $462.88 balance as an outstanding obligation for the Imprescias. The committee did not record a separate written exception or repayment plan during the meeting.
The body approved several sets of prior minutes at the start of the meeting before taking up the abatement request and adjourned at 6:36 p.m.
