Water Boarding

The Official Unofficial Minutes of the WL BOA
Nov 5th

At least they are consistent. The BOA, led by Mayor Bos, passes another rate increase...in anticipation of a KCMO rate increase in the spring. Not the first time they have done this, alternating between not passing along increases (why ?) to playing catch up because of it. Erratic, yes...responsible public policy, you be the judge. Not much resistance or questions from the aldermen, sole nay voice was Steve Clark in a 3-1 passing vote by the BOA.

Effective the first billing cycle after November 30, 2013, bi-monthly water rates charged by the City of Weatherby Lake to change as follows:
IN-CITY RATES - Will change: From $10.75 per 1,000 to $11.45 per 1,000 for the first 4,000 gallons From $4.05 per 1,000 gallons thereafter to $5.00 per 1,000 gallons thereafter.
OUT OF CITY/NON-RESIDENTIAL RATES Will Change: From $20.50 per 1,000 to $22.90 per 1,000 for the first 4,000 gallons From $8.10 per 1,000 gallons thereafter to $10.00 per 1,000 gallons thereafter.
Effective the first billing cycle after November 30, 2013 bi-monthly sewer rate of $150.00 will remain unchanged. Grinder pump fee will increase from $24.00 bi-monthly charge to $30.00 bi-monthly charge.

Pity Gwen and Nan in the office. When the s**t hits the fan, ie the bills in the mail, the phones will be a ringing in City Hall. Our non-resident customers, paying double the city rates, should be especially delighted.

Who says Water Boarding is illegal?
