Following a public hearing that drew no commentsdespite a small crowd at the back of the room, the Surf City Borough Council last week adopted a measure setting a fee schedule for water and sewer charges.
Fees are going up by 8.6 percent, or $50, under Ordinance 2019-01. The new annual sewer rental charge for a private single-family home is $340, according to the measure.
