ANGOLA — A rush of rainfall and an equipment malfunction help lead to one of the larger combined sewer overflows in years from the Angola Wastewater Treatment Plant.
ANGOLA â Angola Common Council discussed changes in fees for curbside municipal waste service rates on Monday.
The city has a new agreement with Republic Services of Indiana that will see an increase in cost for waste pickup for municipal residences and facilities over the next five years.
âThere is an automatic cost increase built in and itâs based on the water sewer trash cost index that the census bureau compiles,â said Clerk-Treasurer Deb Twitchell. âAnd itâs an average of the previous five years, which is 3.4% every year.â
This is different from previous agreements that involved yearly cost increases based on a municipal cost index.
