A small not-for-profit sewer utility serving about 62 residents in the Hillview Estates Subdivision is seeking to more than double its monthly rate.
The Hillview Estates Subdivision Utilities has filed a rate increase application with the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission (IURC) to increase its monthly rate from $30 to $64.17, which represents a 114 percent increase, according to filing documents.
Residents in the subdivision, which is near Mt. Healthy School southwest of Columbus, have water provided by Southwestern Bartholomew Water Corp., but has its own sewage disposal system.
