Water users to see rate increase

A rate increase will be seen by water users in Brockport in the first billing cycle of 2003.

Trustee James Whipple, a member of the Brockport Water Commissioners, announced that the Monroe County Water Authority sent notice that they will be experiencing a rate increase in 2003 and will be passing that increase along to consumers. The increase would total five cents per thousand gallons, he said.

Treasurer Scott Rightmyer said village officials received no prior notice of the rate increase. "We received the notice when we received our bill," he said.
