The typical water and sewer residential bill for residents in the Maplewood district will be $97.31; Residents in Limecrest district will pay $116.14 and Rockway district residents will pay $27.82, according to the report.
The remaining water and sewer districts will not receive a rate increase in 2021. The Board of Clark County Commissioner approved the rate at its meeting on Dec. 16.
“We felt it was best for our customers to limit rate increases as much as possible for the upcoming year due to the COVID-19 pandemic,” Utilities Director Chuck Bauer said. “We will continue to examine our rate structure to ensure our customers receive the most efficient service possible moving forward.”
