Commissioner Amanda Fritz on the continual increase in water rates and what can be done about it.
The City Council will vote tomorrow on the proposed seven point six percent increase in your water rates on top of fifty five percent in the past few years.
The ask had been eight-point one percent and under pressure from commissioners, the water bureau removed funding for a few vacant positions and saved rate payers a half of a percent.
