A water and sewer advisory task force was formed after large rate increases were required in the early 2000s to:

• Pay for the construction of the West Fork Eno Reservoir.
• Make up for the loss of the town’s largest water customer, which represented 25% of the town’s water and sewer revenue.

The members were tasked with evaluating the:

• Situation that led to the large rate increases.
• Management of the town’s utilities operations and finances.

The task force has continued as a permanent appointed board. Its members represent water and sewer customers and hear the concerns and suggestions of fellow customers.

Composition 

The Water and Sewer Advisory Committee is composed of customers who live inside and outside of town limits. It strives to maintain six to eight members with representation matching the customer base as closely as possible. 

One member shall be the mayor pro tem of the Board of Commissioners.

Terms

Committee members serve four-year terms, with the opportunity for reappointment for a second full term. After serving two complete terms and any partial term, a member shall be ineligible for reappointment until one calendar year has expired.
