Council will conduct an annual review of the waterworks policy to ensure revenues continue to cover operating, capital and debt repayment costs. By planning waterworks rates ahead of time, users will be able to prepare for and adjust to fluctuations. Bylaws will be passed when it is necessary to change the water rates.
