Water Rates Mulled In Archbold

Archbold officials pass the first reading of a proposed annual 3% water and wastewater rate increase. Also, the panel will begin accepting bids for a new water tower. The rate increases would fund a two-phase wastewater project that would pick up the flow from an expanding Con Agra plant…and tackle a list of improvements to the village’s aging wastewater treatment plant. The proposed water rate increase, which requires passage of three readings, would raise the cost from $3.75 to $3.86 per 1,000 gallons for the first million gallons used. The minimum monthly water charge of $13.58 would go up to $13.98. The increases would be enacted June 1, 2021, after the village’s current water rates expire.
