Show Notes
Lawrences utility rates surge due to underutilized sewer plant and water plant expansions, as growth projections fell short by 60% and 30% respectively. Mayor Finkeldei attributes this to insufficient population growth, while city staff points to aging infrastructure and EPA regulations. Plans for westward expansion aim to distribute costs across more users, potentially easing rate pressure in the future.
