 Council members backed a 30% increase in sewer rates beginning in fiscal 27. McQueen says the increase is necessary for construction of the city's new wastewater treatment plant. We have to be in a position, according to our financial advisor, to be able to have the money on hand. So that's what we're looking at on those two amendments, and of course the public hearings will be on the 23rd. In a related note, the council holds a special meeting for business connected to the proposed wastewater plant at 6 this evening in Shenandoah City Hall.
