Budget PlanningUtilitiesDetected Jun 15, 2026

Tawas City Council’s June 15, 2026 agenda includes approval of a resolution setting water and sewer rates, fees, surcharges, and special charges. While the agenda does not detail projects, rate resolutions are typically tied to upcoming system maintenance, compliance upgrades, and capital improvements in the water/wastewater system. Vendors serving municipal utilities should view this as a signal that Tawas City may be planning capital or operational investments funded through these updated rates in FY 2025-2026. This could lead to needs for engineering services, treatment equipment, metering, billing software, leak detection, or infrastructure repairs. Following up around how the city plans to deploy the new revenue and comply with regulatory requirements would be a sensible entry point.
