Long Beach Township introduced new water and sewer fees for 2023 at its board of commissioners meeting earlier this month. Another meeting is scheduled for Monday, Dec. 19, at 4 p.m., during which the officials will hold a second reading of Ordinance 22-25C.

If approved, the measure would set base rates for single-family residences at $150 per quarter for water and $150 per quarter for sewer – for a total of $1,200 per year – plus the cost of usage in excess of 15,000 gallons of water.
