Connecticut’s water and sewer rates rose 11.6 percent and 10 percent, respectively, from 2011 to 2013, according to a new survey published by Middletown engineering firm.
Tighe & Bond, with headquarters in Massachusetts and offices in Shelton and Middletown, gathers and publishes water and sewer rates that governments, regional authorities, and private water suppliers as a comparison tool.
Results from the 2013 survey showed residential users in Connecticut pay $467 for water and $406 for sewer annually.
Tighe first began doing the survey in 1998 and performs one every other year, alternating with a similar survey the firm performs in Massachusetts.
