The City of Allardt Water Utility has enacted Ordinance No. #2025-07-05 to revise water rates due to a rate increase from the City of Jamestown to the Fentress County Utility District, necessitating an adjustment to cover the cost of purchased water. Effective with the August 2025 billing cycle, the new water rates, excluding tax, are set at $40.91 for the first 2,000 gallons and $11.71 per 1,000 gallons thereafter.

Bills will be mailed on the first day of each month, with payment due by the 15th. Unpaid balances by the 25th may result in service disconnection, incurring a $25.00 reconnect fee. The ordinance, passed on July 7, 2025 (first reading) and July 11, 2025 (second reading), takes effect immediately, repealing any conflicting ordinances to ensure the financial sustainability of the utility while meeting public welfare needs.
