Board approves wastewater rate increase to cover system costs
Summary
Trustees adopted resolution 21-2026 setting the wastewater usage rate at $2.34 per 1,000 gallons and a revised flat quarterly rate effective July 1, 2026; board corrected meeting language in the whereas clauses before adoption.
Cold Spring trustees adopted a resolution May 20 to raise wastewater (sewer) usage and flat rates to cover system operating and maintenance costs.
The board read proposed changes into the meeting record and set the wastewater usage rate at $2.34 per 1,000 gallons and adjusted the flat quarterly charge (the minute text records the revised flat rate as $98.10 per quarter after the amendment). The resolution text and clerical corrections were discussed and adopted by roll call.
Trustees said the change is intended to ensure the wastewater system remains financially solvent amid ongoing system needs. The board confirmed effective dates and corrected wording where a prior entry had incorrectly labeled a meeting as a public hearing.
