Over 4 and 1/2 Hours of CCWD Rate Increase Meeting Video
Posted by: John_Hamilton on 07/12/2013 06:22 PM
San Andreas, CA...On Wednesday in an over 5 hour meeting the CCWD Board voted to implement part of the proposed rate increases that had raised the communities ire. In a nutshell they are going to implement the first three years of water increases and the first 2 years of sewer increases and then cap the server rates at $90 for years 4 and 5. Literally thousands of rate protest letters had been turned in but not quite enough to block the increase from going into effect. The board however I think weighed the needs of investments in capital improvement projects and the very real financial constraints of their customers.
Over 4 1/2 Hours of Meeting Video Is Above and the Original and Partially Implemented Rate Information is Enclosed..
