Staff Summary
·      The rate ordinance establishes all water and sewer user rates and connection fees for the County's water and sewer systems.
·      The ordinance is revised periodically to modify rates and fees, as necessary.
·      This proposed ordinance adds a new section (1e) that lists system surcharges that are applied to water/sewer bills.
·      These surcharges are not new, but are simply being added to the rate ordinance to clarify and list surcharges previously approved by the County.
·      The proposed ordinance also increases the South Central sewer rate from $39.68 to $41.76 per month for un-metered sewer users and from $4.96 to $5.22 per 1,000 gallons for metered users, as a result of increases by the Village of Libertyville.
