Residents raise concerns about deposits, missing bills and water rate increases at Sheffield public comment
Summary
Three residents told trustees they faced deposit requirements, missing utility bills and rising water rates; the board advised following up with the postmaster and officials and noted the issue for future staff follow-up.
During the June 10 public comment period, three residents addressed village trustees about utility-related concerns. Jim Hurley spoke about account deposit requirements; Don Milby commented on recent water rate increases; and Lynn VanderMeersch said he had not received his village utility bill. President Sheila Yepsen suggested VanderMeersch check with the Postmaster and verify account preferences.
Trustees did not take formal action during public comment but the remarks were entered into the record. Trustee Barry also asked Clerk Ries questions about the monthly profit-and-loss statement during the board reports, indicating board attention to financial reporting and utility revenue matters.
