In compliance with Ordinance 2025-10, enacted on August 12, 2025, a 10% increase in water rates has been instituted. This increase will be executed in two phases, each comprising a 5% increase. Customers noted the initial phase of the water rate increase in their utility invoice in December 2025, and will see the second phase of the water increase reflected in their utility invoice in July 2026.

Increasing utility rates is a challenging decision for the Village Council of Monroeville. While the administration takes pride in the positive outcomes resulting from investments in infrastructure and upgraded technologies under the current water and sewer rates, it has become necessary to raise these rates to ensure the continued provision of exceptional service and commitment to the community. In addition to the significant water and sewer infrastructure projects that have recently been completed and are expected to continue as required and mandated by the Ohio EPA, this administration is dedicated to enhancing the productivity, efficiency, and reliability of the Village's water and sewer services. With the increased expertise of our devoted employees, who are committed to providing high-quality water and wastewater services, the administration has sought to identify cost-saving opportunities to counterbalance the rising costs of raw materials, chemicals, production, and general overhead, administrative, and insurance expenses. As always, we are united in this endeavor and will continue to seek ways to be fiscally responsible while serving all residents and workers in our community to the best of our ability.
