Title: What is a typical sewer charge for a Youngstown resident for one month?
Post by: Penguin388 on November 04, 2017, 09:30:12 PM
If possible, I'd like to know what a household of one would normally be charged for a month.  But if someone else has data for a family of four, that would be interesting. I'm not interested in the water or trash disposal fees.  Does the rate vary depending on where in Youngstown a house is located?

The "City Sewer" part of my bill fluctuates between $49.46 and $55.97.  I'm a single guy, but probably use slightly more than an average amount of water.

Your sewer charge is based on the amount of water you use.  The rate is same for all homeowners in Youngstown.  The rate is different for people who live outside of Youngstown, but get their water from the city.


The sewer rates have have been increasing about 15% a year for the past few years to pay for EPA mandates.  Expect them to go up again in Jan or Feb of 2018.
