Cranbrook, BC (January 24, 2022) – Beginning January 1, 2022, the water rate for residential customers in Cranbrook increased by four dollars per month. The other utility fees remain unchanged from 2021.
The additional funds will be used to create three new full-time utility operator positions. Due to the increasing rate of breaks and repairs needed to the water system infrastructure, additional staff are required so that work can be completed as quickly as possible, minimizing disruptions to our residents and businesses.
