Water & Sewer Rate Study

In December 2024, a contract was awarded to NewGen Strategies & Solutions to complete a comprehensive study of the Brattleboro’s water and sewer rate structure.

Representatives from NewGen attended a Brattleboro Selectboard meeting on February 4, 2025, to discuss their rate study process. The group will be meeting with Town staff regularly throughout the late winter and early spring. NewGen presented the results of its study to the Selectboard on May 20.
