Williams County commissioners discussed sewer rates on July 15 but took no formal vote. Commissioners said they had previously talked with Todd (county staff/engineer) and that the board needs to schedule a meeting to decide next steps and timing for any rate adjustments.
One commissioner proposed setting a deadline to review rates by Sept. 1 so that, if the board chose to raise rates, customers could receive notice in September and an increase could take effect Jan. 1 with four to five months’ advance notice. Commissioners discussed whether notices must be mailed to customers or could be included on bills; staff said both approaches were possible.
No motion to change rates was taken. Staff were directed to schedule a meeting to review the sewer-rate question and to prepare options and notice procedures.
