Water Rate Increase

This adjustment is necessary to reduce deficiencies in the existing fees. Rate modifications granted under this statute do not require a public hearing. The effect of the increase for some selected customers is shown below (source: Village of Greendale).
This rate increase will go into effect on September 1, 2010. If you have questions regarding this request to the PSC, call the Clerk-Treasurer's office at 414-423-2100.
