Water & Sewer Committee discusses wastewater agreement, seeks comprehensive sewer rate study
Summary
At its Jan. 7 meeting, the Spring Green Water & Sewer Committee discussed the Village's wastewater treatment and billing agreement with the Prairie Sanitary District and recommended a comprehensive rate study covering all sewer utility accounts; no formal action was taken.
The Spring Green Water & Sewer Committee on Jan. 7 discussed the Village's current Agreement for Wastewater Treatment & Billing with the Prairie Sanitary District and concluded a comprehensive sewer rate study is needed.
Committee member Robin Reid called the meeting to order at 3:31 p.m. and the group discussed current rates and potential capital projects and upgrades for the Sewer Utility. Those in attendance said a rate study should include all sewer utility accounts, rates, and charges so that any future changes would be based on a full accounting of system needs and costs. Staff members Adam Reno and Scott Whitsett were assigned to review and update the plan for future Sewer Utility projects.
The Committee tentatively scheduled its annual meeting with the Prairie Sanitary District for March 10, 2025; members said they will update the District about the committee's view that the existing agreement should be revised and that a new rate study is warranted. The committee recorded that no formal action to change the agreement was taken at this meeting.
The discussion is expected to feed into next steps before the March 10 meeting, including Reno and Whitsett's review of project plans and any recommended scope for the rate study.
