The Bremen Town Council members discussed an amendment to the Utility Rate Ordinance on Monday afternoon.
The amendment would change the late penalty for all billed utilities to 10 percent of total. Also, the disconnect and reconnect fees would increase from $50 to $75. The amendment also eliminates after hour reconnect services.
A public hearing was opened to gather comments on the proposed changes. No public comments were voiced.
With that, the town council members approved the ordinance on second reading with a unanimous vote. The rules were suspended and the ordinance was adopted on third reading with a unanimous vote.
