Cost hike for trucked water customers in Yellowknife considered by council

Groundwater

About four per cent of the city’s residents rely on trucked water which has councillors considering an increased rate to cover the service’s costs. The rate hasn’t seen an increase in more than 25 years. A committee report recommends a 38 per cent increase for those who depend on trucked water, but at least one resident has taken exception to the recommendation, saying those who have access to piped water are paying about half the cost of water that trucked water customers pay.   Click here to read the story.   Click the following link for more information on Infrastructure.
