Post subject: Sewer rates
Quotes are from the Cranbury Press artical.
"If the ordinance is approved, the public will see an increase in the quarterly flat fees from $17 per quarter to $56.25 per quarter, she said."
330% increase
"The per gallon consumption rate will also go up if the ordinance gets committee approval, from $2.75 per 1,000 gallons of water used to $6.60 per 1,000 gallons of water used."
240% increase
Is my math correct??
That seems like a very steep increase in rates.
