F.C. Council Gives Preliminary OK To 8% Water Rate Hike Over Protests

Alan Brangman stands to be elected the next mayor of Falls Church with support from as many as five of the seven City Council members — including the two new ones who will be sworn in — when next Monday’s special council meeting is convened.

City Council gave a preliminary approval to an eight percent water rate increase, the first phase of a “smoothed out” gradual increase in rates over the next five years deemed necessary to main tain the safety and quality of the City-owned water system.
