Sanitation and Sewage will soon rise in Fort Payne
Sanitation and sewer rates increase in Fort Payne By Stefante Randall | January 19, 2021 at 8:00 PM CST - Updated January 19 at 8:01 PM
FORT PAYNE, Ala. (WAFF) - Home owners and renters in Fort Payne will soon see an increase to utility bills.
Today, members of the Fort Payne City Council voted to increase sanitation and sewer rates by three percent.
It’s the first increase in rate since 2013.
So what is driving the change? City leaders say the money is needed for new equipment and repairs.
“It’s very little, a residential customer that has a trash can and a sewer is looking at about $1.07 more a month. It is an ongoing thing, a recurring charge until the council votes to stop it, said City Treasurer,” Tricia Dunne.
