By now most of you have been informed of the proposed water rate increases. I for one do not like it. It is unfair to the low water consumers. An individual, using 20 m3 of water per quarter will pay $318.80 a year for water, $118.12 (58.9%) more than last year. An average user, consuming 350 m3 annually will pay $574.95, $94.37 (19.6%) more than last year, while a high user’s cost will be $828.12, $100.96 (13.9%) over last year’s cost. If you don’t agree with these changes call your respective political representative and protest. Remember, it’s an election year!
To calculate your expected water cost please refer to the Vernon blogs water rate calculator.
Try various combinations and see how much more low users subsidize the system!
