BASA customers to see rate hike
BUTLER TWP — Customers of the Butler Area Sewer Authority will have to pony up another $60 per year for sewer service starting next month.
The BASA board of directors voted at their Tuesday meeting to approve the rate increase.
Duane McKee, BASA executive director, said customers will pay an additional $15 per quarter for their sewer service.
Residential bills will rise from $114 per quarter to $129.
He said the increase was necessary to fund capital projects.
The main ongoing project at the sewer authority is the work involved in the 2019 corrective action plan mandated by the state Department of Environmental Protection.
