STOP WSSC RATE INCREASES

We the undersigned urge WSSC to limit next year's rate increase (FY2015) to the inflation rate (2% maximum).

Why is this important?

WSSC water rates for PG and Mont. County residents (in Md.) have increased 60% in the last 6 years! (That's 7-10% each year during this recession.) WSSC Commissioners will soon be deciding on next year's increase. Please help us stop them from placing such an intolerable financial burden on Marylanders.
