Rangely approves modest water and wastewater rate increases after external study

Town of Rangely Town Council · December 10, 2025

Summary

Council adopted Ordinance 706-2025 to raise water and wastewater fees to sustain enterprise funds; town staff said an external rate analysis recommended slightly higher increases than those adopted.

The Rangely Town Council voted to adopt Ordinance 706-2025, increasing water and wastewater fees to maintain the balances of the town's utility enterprise funds. Councilors completed the second reading and carried the motion by voice vote.

Town manager Lisa told the council she received the contracted firm's draft rate analysis, calling it "about a 170 pages" and saying the firm's recommended increases were "a tad higher than what we actually increased the rate." She added the analysis accounted for customer usage, capital needs, and rate-structure application. The council adopted the ordinance after staff explanation and an assurance that the external evaluation informed the decision.
