McHenry likely to OK smaller hike for water service
McHENRY – Water and sewer rates are poised to go up next month, but not as high as the 7 percent increases that were in place the past three fiscal years.
The McHenry City Council is expected at its Monday meeting to approve an ordinance increasing water rates by 1.6 percent, based on the annual rate of inflation.
Under the proposal, the combined water and sewer bill for 6,500 gallons of water would go from $44.73 a month to $45.38. The increase would take effect Feb. 1.
