Excerpt from Council Report
to User Fees in covering the cost of the operations and maintenance (O&M) of the system. This shift in fees is necessary for the long term viability of the sewer utility. It should also be noted that with the proposed increase to User Fees the City of Langford’s sewer user fees will remain one of, if not the, lowest in the Capital Regional District.
LEGAL IMPLICATIONS: The current Bylaw No. 1600, as amended has set rates to the end of 2021. Rates for 2022 are not included in the current Bylaw, therefore an amendment to the Bylaw is required.
OPTIONS: Option 1 THAT Council give Sewer Utility Bylaw No. 1600, Amendment No. 4 Bylaw No. 2036, 2022 first, second and third reading;
OR Option 2 THAT Council do nothing at this time for Sewer Utility Bylaw No. 1600, Amendment No. 5 Bylaw No. 2036, 2022.
