Public Information Meeting for Proposed Sewer Rates

January 17, 2019

The Village of Perry will be holding a public information meeting on January 24th, 2019, 7:00 PM at the Perry Fire Department's Recreation Hall in the Village Park.

Discussions will revolve around the need to increase sewer rates to update the Waste Water Treatment Facility. The current facility is over 40 years old, is in sore need of update, and does not meet compliance standards that are being introduced by state and federal regulators. The total cost of the project will be $10 million which will come from user fees and state grant monies. The attached Notice PDF shows the proposed rate change. 

A formal public hearing will be held in April 2019 to finalize consideration of proposed sewer rates. Additional information on that hearing process will be posted at least 30 days prior to the meeting and publicized in local newspapers.
