Friends,

Oconee County residential water users will be asked for the second time in a little more than a year to pay more for water, if the Board of Commissioners approves a budget request made Wednesday night by the Utility Department.

The increase of 31.8 percent in the base water rate is needed to compensate for a decrease in water sales and consequent decrease in revenues for the Utility Department, the BOC was told.

Sewer rates also would increase, if the Board accepts the proposal, by 24.0 percent.
