The Weekly Question

If the Legislature dissolves the Brewer Water District, do you think water rates will go down?

It’s my understanding that if the city takes it over, rates will go down.

Jerry Viering, Brewer

I don’t think anything will go down, because the cost of nothing goes down in Brewer.

Nancy Lee, Orrington

Probably, because if the government got ahold of anything, hopefully it was to make an impact.

Chad Bean, Bangor

I really don’t know what would happen.

Kathy Boynton, Eddington

If there is a change, I would hope it would go down and make a difference in consumers’ costs.

Bob Small, Brewer

I doubt it. Anything local government does goes up.

Dave Morrison, Brewer

I hope so. Otherwise, what’s the point in doing it?

Keith Stover, Orrington

Probably not. Rates never go down.

Margaret Adams, Clifton
