North Judson Moves Forward with Rate Ordinances

The North Judson Town Council discussed the sewer and water rate ordinances during their special meeting Tuesday night.

North Judson Clerk-Treasurer Andrew Rowe said they will be introducing the new rate ordinance at their next meeting Tuesday, September 6 for the first reading. He said rates are going to change, but there should not be any surprises as they have had discussions on what will be introduced next week during previous town council meetings.

In a previous meeting, David Dominguez from Baker Tilly was present to explain the suggested three-phase rate increase to the town’s water and sewer rates.

In that meeting he said phase one is proposed to raise rates by 6.5%. Phase two would increase 8% and phase three would increase 5.18%.

Rowe stated the public hearing for the sewer and water rate ordinance will be held Monday, September 19.
