COLUMBUS, Ind. — Columbus City Utilities will have a special meeting Thursday to discuss a proposed rate increase for the city water utility.
The meeting will be held at 1 p.m. in the Cal Brand Meeting Room at Columbus City Hall. It is open to the public, but social distancing will be observed.
City utilities staff will go over the background and the needs for the proposed rate increase, utilities Executive Director Scott Dompke said. “And we will show what the rates will be proposed in our tiered rate structure. And the tiered rate structure charges you less per thousand gallons the more that you consume.”
The utilities board will vote on the proposal at an 11:30 a.m. July 16 meeting, deciding whether to move the rate case forward to the Columbus City Council.
