Sewer Board could vote on rates Thursday

The New Albany Sewer Board will discuss proposed rate increases during a special meeting at 12:30 p.m. Thursday. New Albany should raise sewer rates by 70 percent immediately to deal with revenue shortfalls, the Crowe Horwath report said. The board may adopt a resolution recommending a course of action to the city council during the meeting. Regardless of the vote, the City Council still has the final say on setting sewer rates
