Standpipe water price confirmed

Council, at the General Meeting held 16 December 2020 resolved to confirm the price of standpipe water of $6.00 per kl for potable water and $5.00 per kl for non-potable water for the 2020-21 financial year and reconsider standpipe charges in setting Fees and Charges for future years.

In September as a result of public feedback, Council resolved to reduce the initial increase of $10 per kl until it could undertake a further review. The review resulted in officer’s recommending that the price for stand-pipe water be set at $6.00 per kl for the remainder of this financial year.

As a result of the resolution, the current charges of $6.00 per kl for potable water and $5.00 per kl for non-potable water will remain in place for the 2020-21 financial year.
