Council sets July 20 hearing on proposed sewer rate adjustments and orders customer notices
Summary
La Habra council scheduled a public protest hearing for proposed sewer rate adjustments on July 20, 2026 and directed staff to prepare and mail notices to sewer customers; the motion passed unanimously.
City staff presented a notice of proposed sewer rate adjustments and asked the council to set a date for a public protest hearing. Mayor Pro Tem James Gomez moved to schedule the hearing for Monday, July 20, 2026, and to direct staff to prepare and mail hearing notices to customers on record. The council voted to set the hearing date and authorize mailing of notices; "Motion carried unanimously," the clerk recorded.
Staff emphasized that the formal rate report will also be presented again at the public hearing and that mailing notices is the next procedural step required under the Proposition 218-style protest process used in many California agencies. The council gave direction only to set the hearing date and notify customers; no rate changes were approved at this meeting.
