Killdeer commission approves $0.05 per 1,000‑gallon increase to city water base rate
Summary
Following notice from the Southwest Water Authority, the commission raised the city base water rate by $0.05 per 1,000 gallons (from $6.92 to $6.97), effective for usage billed beginning in February 2026.
The Killdeer City Commission approved a $0.05 per 1,000‑gallon increase in the city water base rate at its Jan. 20 meeting, raising the city rate from $6.92 to $6.97 per 1,000 gallons for usage billed starting in February. Commissioner Cindy Hanson moved to approve the increase; the motion passed by unanimous roll call.
Staff presented correspondence from the Southwest Water Authority showing the authority’s contract rate rose from $5.87 per 1,000 gallons in 2025 to $5.92 in 2026. The commission’s base‑rate decision follows that correspondence; staff recorded the new city rate and set the effective billing month.
No additional adjustments or special exemptions were recorded in the minutes. The commission also briefly discussed commission pay during the meeting but took no formal action on that topic.
