Water And Sewer Fees To Increase In Osage Beach

Water and sewer fees are, apparently, on the way up in the City of Osage Beach.

In a statement released by administrator Jeana Woods, the unspecified increase has become necessary to continue the current level of services.

A public hearing on the proposed rate increases will be conducted at 6:00 before the board of aldermen’s regular meeting on Thursday, March 2^nd.

Prior to that public hearing, before the board’s February 2^nd meeting this week, particulars about the proposed water and sewer rate increases in Osage Beach will be released for discussion.

The city’s water system serves over six-thousand users and was built in the early 2000’s while the sewer system, built in the 1980’s, currently serves over seven-thousand users.
