Port Henry water rates to increase in November PORT HENRY — Port Henry residents will pay mor e fo r water beginning in November. The village’s “water law ,” which was adopted in April, takes ef fect. Besides incr easing water rates, it also adds provisions for village wa-

ter service. Discounts for large-volume water users have been eliminated; all users will be billed the same rate per thousand gallons of water usage. “Although the rates ar e higher , the elimination of this discount is viewed as a fair er system for all users,” village officials said in a prepared statement. “The minimum bill for water consumption for meter ed users has incr eased fr om $71 to

$98.50 for the six-month billing period. Similar incr eases have been implemented for flat-rate (non-metered) customers.” The increase in rates is necessary because of increased expenses, trustees said. Operation costs have increased each year without corr esponding rate changes. The increases impact the water rates and water debt fee only. The water debt fee has increased by $12.
