Village of Allouez Water and Sanitary Sewer Customers – Notice of Rate Increases

 Water Rate

This is a reminder that the Village of Allouez under went a water rate study in 2021. The Public Service Commission of Wisconsin authorized updated water rates with an effective date of January 1, 2022. The new rates will apply to your February bill which accounts for January water usage.

 

The increase was necessary due to the increased cost to operate the Village’s water distribution system and repair aging infrastructure.  The last water rate case was completed in 2020. The water bill for an average residential customer with a 5/8-inch or 3/4-inch meter who uses 3,000 gallons of water per month will increase from $37.03 to $40.25 (including the public fire protection charge). Please see the attached table to view the estimated impact the water rate increase will have on your total monthly utility bill.

Sewer Rate

The Village Board earlier this year approved an increase to the rates charged for sanitary sewer.  The approved rates are effective as of January 1, 2022.  The last sewer rate case was completed in 2016.

 

Sewer rates are changing due to higher charges from NEW Water (Green Bay Metropolitan Sewerage District) to treat our wastewater, the repair and replacement of aging lines in older neighborhoods, and the need to cover fixed costs at a time total volume is steady or declining thanks to improved conservation and leak prevention.

The sewer bill for an average residential customer with a 5/8-inch or 3/4-inch meter who uses 3,000 gallons of water per month will increase from $28.72 to $34.77. Please see the attached table to view the estimated impact the sanitary sewer rate increases will have on your total monthly utility bill.

Background

Public health and environmental protection are high priorities. The Village of Allouez secured a safe, long-term source of drinking water in the early 2000s by collaborating with neighboring communities on a new Lake Michigan pipeline to replace declining groundwater wells. At the same time, our regional waste-treatment provider, NEW Water, continues to invest in advanced technology to match rising public expectations for a cleaner bay and river.

 

Obviously, costs are substantial. The Village does what it can to limit sewer and water rate increases, but two primary drivers – external waste-treatment and water-supply charges – are beyond the direct control of current officials and staff.

 

Allouez will continue to manage utility infrastructure within our boundaries so as to limit additional costs to ratepayers. This is evidenced by reduction in our utility-operator workforce, the use of innovative technology in trenchless repair of underground utilities, and a proactive approach to early detection of minor system defects before they become major, costly problems.  As always, we avoid special assessments for utility repairs and improvements and instead share those costs across the community. Our staff members look forward to continuing to provide exceptional services while focusing on controlling costs.

NOW HIRING- Village of Allouez Neighborhood Compliance Inspector

 

NOW HIRING- Village of Allouez Neighborhood Compliance Inspector

Position Description

Position Summary

The Village of Allouez Planning and Community Development Department is accepting applications for the Neighborhood Compliance Inspector (NCI). The Department is looking for energetic individuals that have a passion for working with residents and upholding the standards of the village.

This is a part-time position with a flexible working schedule to accommodate the needs of the employee and the department. The typical work week is an eight hour day, three days per week up to 24 hours per week, but flexibility can be given to the right candidate or candidates.

The primary working responsibilities for the NCI position include public education, investigation, inspection, and enforcement of municipal ordinances, codes and regulations as they relate to the abatement of nuisances, the maintenance of private properties, overseeing the Crossing Guard Program, and the preservation of neighborhoods. In addition, the NCI works with residents and property owners, and coordinates community outreach on the importance of code enforcement and nuisance abatement in the pursuit of preserving property values.

The NCI serves as a liaison between the village and the public regarding code enforcement and nuisance abatement issues and may issue citations and aid in the prosecution of village ordinance violations, when necessary. However, the primary focus will be on education and compliance, and less on punitive measures. The NCI can expect to work across an array of village departments – particularly Public Works, Community Development, Administration, and Police and Fire.

Successful individual or individuals will be approachable, compassionate, team-oriented professional(s), with strong interpersonal skills.

The wage range for this position is $18.00-$21.00 per hour based on experience. The position will also receive vacation and holiday pay.
