NYC water bills to go up 8.5%, largest hike since 2011
New York City officials signed off on an 8.5% water bill hike for property owners on Thursday — the largest increase since 2011.
“It undermines the board's ability to consider rates in the future for critical water infrastructure, like storm water resilience and coastal resilience,” board member Dan Zarilli said in an interview after the vote. Opponents of the rental charge call it a “backdoor tax” that disproportionately impacts lower incomes, unlike the city’s normal progressive taxing systems such as income and property taxes.
