Asheville City Council will consider increasing charges for some city services. Staff members have recommended increasing solid waste services by $12 per year, stormwater management by more than $5 a year, and water services by more than $2 a year, totaling about $20 more per customer each year.
If approved, the new fees would go into effect on July 1. The council will meet to discuss this matter.
The council invites the public to provide feedback on the proposed fee hikes. Residents are encouraged to attend the meeting or submit their comments in writing to express their views on the potential cost increases.
The proposed fee hikes aim to address the growing demands on city services and infrastructure. By adjusting the fees, the city can maintain the quality and efficiency of essential services while ensuring financial sustainability for future projects.
City officials are keen on keeping residents informed about the city’s financial planning and the rationale behind fee adjustments. Transparency and community engagement play a crucial role in shaping the city’s budget priorities and service delivery.
Residents are encouraged to stay informed about the city council’s decisions and initiatives related to service fees and city management. Updates on the fee hikes and other city matters can be found on the city’s official website and social media platforms.
