Hallock council approves 5% water and sewer rate increase and raises bulk-water charge
Summary
The Hallock City Council approved a 5% increase to water and sewer rates for 2025 and raised the bulk-water rate to $15 per 1,000 gallons, as part of routine utility rate-setting for the year.
The Hallock City Council on Jan. 6 approved a 5% increase to water and sewer rates for 2025 and raised the bulk-water rate to $15 per 1,000 gallons. Councilor Mike Totleben moved to approve the rate changes; Councilor Kevin Waller seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
The motion was presented as a standard annual rate adjustment; the minutes do not list the previous bulk-water rate or an explicit projected revenue change tied to the increase. The council approved the change as a single motion on the consent agenda for utility rates.
Utility rate changes will take effect in 2025 under the schedule recorded in the minutes; the minutes do not specify the exact effective billing date. For customers seeking detail on individual bills or the calculation of the new rates, city staff can provide the utility rate schedule and billing guidance at the next administrative session.
