Archdale Council accepts water asset management plan and rate study
Summary
Consultants presented a water asset management plan and rate study to Archdale City Council; the body voted unanimously to accept both reports, which the presenters said will guide maintenance priorities and future rate considerations.
Archdale — Consultants from Hazen & Sawyer presented an Asset Management Plan and a Rate Study for the City of Archdale on April 28; Council unanimously accepted both documents.
Meg Roberts and Kyle Pohle, consultants with Hazen & Sawyer, outlined the city’s water asset management approach and the accompanying rate‑study analysis, saying the reports identify maintenance priorities and financial strategies to sustain system operations. Councilman Roger Blackwell moved to accept the Asset Management Plan and the Rate Study; Councilman John Glass seconded the motion and it passed unanimously.
The reports were presented as part of the meeting’s presentations and, according to the consultants, are intended to inform capital planning, prioritize repairs and replacements, and provide a basis for any future rate adjustments. Council did not take a formal vote on rate changes at the meeting; acceptance was limited to the studies themselves.
The action signals the Council’s intent to use the studies as guides for future water infrastructure work and potential budgeting decisions. City staff and the consultants will be the next contacts for detailed implementation steps and for any public outreach tied to rate changes.
