The Denton Town Council has introduced ordinances that will raise water and sewer rates beginning in 2026. The proposed increases, discussed and approved for introduction during the Council’s November 6 meeting, are part of a three-year plan designed to stabilize the town’s utility funds and address upcoming infrastructure costs. The new rates will take effect on January 1. Sewer rates for in-town customers will rise from a $50 base fee to $60.50 in 2026, with the per-1,000-gallon charge increasing from $8 to $9.68.
