Nodaway County residents to see future water increase

The Nodaway County Board of Directors of Water Supply District No.1 has announced an anticipated increase in rural water costs for its customers over the next few years. Rates are expected to rise by approximately 50% in 2027 and another 50% in 2028 due to the City of Maryville’s new water treatment facility costs. The board is exploring various options to address the increased costs responsibly while maintaining water service and protecting the district’s long-term stability. The proposed economic development projects in the county are not the cause of these water rate increases, and the board will discuss potential rate proposals in upcoming meetings.
