Starting in October, the fee tacked onto utility bills will increase from $5.66 per residential unit to $8 per residential unit, like a house or an apartment. In July 2027, the fee will further increase to $10.50 per unit.
In July 2028, the public safety fee will return to its current rate of $5.66 per unit.
