The town of Pomfret plans to raise water and sewer rates in Lily Dale.

The hamlet’s quarterly minimum price for water will go from $30 to $40, according to Town Supervisor Dan Pacos. That is the price for any usage of water up to 5,000 gallons.

Water usage over the 5,000-gallon mark will be billed at $7.78 per 1,000 gallons, up from the current $6.48 per 1,000 gallons.

As for sewer use, a similar quarterly minimum will rise from $35 to $45. Usage over the minimum will be $9.38 per 1,000 gallons, an increase from $7.00 per 1,000.

Pacos said the Pomfret Town Board does not have to hold a public hearing on the water rate hike, but it does need to do so on the sewer increase. The hearing will be at 6:20 p.m. just before the town board’s next scheduled meeting on April 9.
