Florida State Statute 180.136 requires that before a local government water or sewer utility increases any rate, charge or fee for water or utility service, the utility shall provide notice of the proposed increase to each customer through the utility’s billing process. This notice shall state the date, time, and place of the public hearing of the governing board of the local government at which such increase will be considered.
