Did you know that everyone pays the same sustainability fee on their Durango utility bill, regardless of how much water they use? The Climate Study Group has a better idea. Let’s make the fee a percentage. The fee would actually go DOWN for many households. This change to the fee structure would incentivize water conservation and raise significant funds for Durango to meet its sustainability goals.
