Yreka Residents Facing 9.6% Sewer & Water Rate Hike in February 2024 or 63% in the next 5 years.

It is not on City of Yreka website.
Especially cumbersome on non residential places!

Calculating the increase for a home with a 3/4″ water line and the basic price (not including the price of water) will go up about 63% in the next 5 years. But to top it off, the City of Yreka in addition to their litany of rules, has a special form one must use this time around.

The “form” to protest is only at the City offices, not on their website.
