At Monday Night’s Council Meeting the Public Utility Board-Rate Increase Board Order number 34 dash 18 passed its second and third readings which means the town of The Pas’s water rates will be increased on April 1st.
In 2016, a bylaw to raise the water rates passed its first reading and the town received approval for a rate hike from the water services board. There has not been a rate increase since 2012 and if a price increase is not submitted then the public utilities board can impose its own rate.
