Coweta County's
water and sewer customers' rates are on the rise.
Last week,
the Coweta County Commission approved a revised rate schedule that will
keep tares in line with operating expenses.
A rate study
was performed by Stevenson & Palmer Engineering, Inc., before the
rates were increased. Changes in the rates include:
Increasing
the minimum water rate from $3.35 to $3.85 per thousand gallons.
Increasing
the rates charged higher water usage tiers by the same amount.
Simplifying
the sewer rates by charging the same rate, $3.40 per 1,000 gallons for
all sewer customers.
Changing industrial
water and sewer rates to $4.30 per 1,000 gallons.
Increasing
all residential tap fees to $1,000.
