GUERNSEY – There has been confusion by some concerning a report in last week’s Gazette in an article titled “Town increases utility rates to become sustainable” regarding the Guernsey Town Council’s passing of resolution 2025-003 on Aug. 20. It was reported:
… “We’ve been low for years,” Burfeind said regarding tap fees according to state standards and the bottom line of the costs involved in properly maintaining water, sewer, and electrical systems – including planning for future repairs and replacements.
Ordinance 2025-003 will increase sewer fees by 22 percent, electrical fees by 50 percent, and water fees by 33 percent, in order to break even with the utilities budget."
