At last night’s meeting of the Bighorn Desert View Water Agency, the board approved a four-year increase in consumption and basic service charges. In year one, rates would rise five percent for basic service and three percent for consumption. The decision followed a public hearing where little resistance to the increase was expressed.
A customer now paying $57.50 per month would pay just $2.28 additional per month. Also last night, the board authorized the general manager to pursue tax liens on delinquent accounts.
