Frustrated residents oppose proposed water and sewer rate increases in Centreville hearing
CENTREVILLE — Frustrated water and sewer customers urged the Centreville Town Council to reconsider proposed annual 8% rate increases during a July 16 public hearing. The council is seeking input on an ordinance that would establish water and sewer user fees and service fees for metered and unmetered customers through 2031. Residents who spoke during the hearing strongly opposed the proposed increases, citing already-high utility bills and the rising cost of living. The council said the decision to consider the increases did not come lightly. The long-running discussion stems partly from infrastructure costs that previous councils delayed in an effort to save money. A new wastewater treatment plant is nonnegotiable because the town must expand its capacity and upgrade its treatment technology, Council President Ashley Kaiser said. “Right now, the technology that we have does not clean the sewer output to the extent that is required moving forward,” she said, noting changing requirements for sewer effluent. The estimated cost of a new wastewater treatment plant has increased dramatically over the years, Kaiser said. The town continues to seek other funding sources and has received millions of dollars in grants and federal earmarks, including COVID-19 relief funding, she said. Expanding downtown
