Sewer Rates & Policies

Listed below, you will find the City of Burden current sewer rates and policies. If you do not find the information you need, please contact our office and we will provide it for you.

The City of Burden's sewer rates increase 3% annually on the January 1 utility billing.

The City applied for both grant and loan funding in 2017 to make required improvements to the sewer system. Starting on September 1, 2017, a line item called: Debt Service Fee, in the amount of $10, was added to the utility bill each month for all sewer users. This money will not only allow us to pay back the KDHE Loan, but also helped with our grant application to receive grant funding. A public hearing was held on Monday, August 28, 2017 at 6:45 pm to discuss the project and fee.
