Smithville water and sewer rates will go up next month.
Leaders approved the increase as part of the budget process. The DeKalb Utility District will stop being a city water customer soon. That leaves a $775,000 loss to the city.
As of July 1, city water customers will pay $7.25 for every thousand gallons of usage. Those who live outside the city will pay $10,88 per thousand gallons.
City sewer customers will also see increases.
