Proposed rate hike outrageous

Here we go again! Far West Water and Sewer asking for a 188 percent rate increase is outrageous.

Most of their customers are only here six to eight months a year but still pay all year. I believe their current rate is comparable to most other similar areas.

I think if they were to show justification for a modest increase, the customers might agree. But to just throw 188 percent up on the wall and see how much will stick is no way to win over your customers in any business.
