Suffern's water rates on the rise

Suffern’s village board will have a public hearing on Wednesday – 7:30 p.m., May 7, Village Hall, 61 Washington Ave. – on a planned 12.7 percent increase in water rates.
The idea is to reduce a deficit that grew to $631,000 since 2006. There was no deficit in 2005.
Village officials have blamed decreasing water use and increasing expenses of running the Water Department, for the deficit.
Is raising the water rates an acceptable answer?
