Niskayuna proposes new water and sewer rates for late 2026, lowering bills for most residents and small businesses.
Niskayuna is proposing new water and sewer rates set to take effect in late 2026, reducing bills for average homeowners and low-volume users after public backlash over a 2023 rate hike.
Under the plan, average users would pay $373.81 every six months, a slight decrease, while low-volume users would see a 11% drop.
The proposal replaces a minimum-use fee with a biannual readiness charge and adds a $4.47 per 1,000-gallon usage fee.
Small businesses would benefit significantly, with rates dropping from $488 to $296, while large commercial users would pay more.
The changes, based on a 2023 Raftelis study, aim to promote conservation and fairer cost distribution.
The town board has approved the proposal.
