The Village of South Holland receives water from the City of Chicago. Over the last several years, Chicago has drastically increased its water rates to suburban municipalities.

As a result, the Village will have no alternative but to pass through a rate adjustment which provides for the future stability of operating and infrastructure costs.

The following new rates will first be applied to water consumed beginning January 20, 2016 and payable on the March 2016 bill.

$7.96 per 1000 gallons for the first 25,000 gallons.
$7.32 per 1000 gallons for the next 100,000 gallons.
$7.21 per 1,000 gallons over 125,000 gallons.

It is important to know that even with the current rate adjustment, South Holland’s rates remain below the Chicago suburban average for all communities served with Lake Michigan water.
