2022 Budget in Brief

TIERED STRUCTURE FOR SENIOR CITIZENS

STORMWATER RATE ²:

Volume charge per 1,000 gallons

$2.22 (increase of $0.10)

The Village implemented a tiered structure to better reflect the needs and demands of our residents. The lowest rate applies to those who use the least amount, especially senior citizens. This rate is considered the conservation rate but more effectively applies to seniors who generally are a 1 or 2-person household and, therefore, most likely use less water than younger families with more occupants in a household.

² Charges for sewer usage and stormwater are based on water consumption. Customers outside of the Village’s boundaries pay higher rates.
