FORT PIERRE — Fort Pierre utility rate-payers will see a minor increase next year. The Fort Pierre City Council finalized approval of a one-dollar, 50-cent increase per month for electric, water and wastewater rates. Council member Scott Deal wanted to hold off on the increase…
Finance Officer Roxanne Heezen says the increase has already been factored into the budget recently approved by the Council. The vote on the increase was five to one with Deal voting against the increase.
