BERLIN – A projection of water and sewer costs and revenues shows the town will have to increase rates to avoid deficits in the coming years.
On Monday, Jean Holloway of the Southeast Rural Community Assistance Project Inc. (SERCAP) presented elected officials in Berlin with a review of financial projections for the town’s water and sewer utilities. Holloway said changes needed to occur in order for the utilities to be sustainable.
“You definitely need to go up on rates across the board,” Holloway said.
Holloway, who first talked with town leaders in 2019, said SERCAP provided its services for free to rural communities with fewer than 10,000 residents. Though she was initially planning to do a rate study for Berlin, after speaking to town staff she opted to start with financial projections.
The last time they raised taxes a bunch of houses went on the market.
Its why mine is. GET OUT OF MD WHILE YOU CAN!!!
Well well well. What did I tell you all???? I told you Berlin to stand and fight back during that buying of that property that out you in the whole and then the tax increase to cover it!!! Just like I said. If you don’t fight back they will never stop and you will get mire tax hikes year after year… I told you all so!!! But I guess im just some conspiracy theorist who is always right!!! How are those taxes going for you??? Huh slaves????
liberals love being taxed,
1) most of them don`t make enough to actually pay taxes
2) the ones that do make enough to pay taxes pay so little taxes,but it makes them feel like they are helping.
