Wednesdays at noon CT, join Strong Towns staffers in a members-only Zoom room where your questions about building resilient cities will be answered.
At this special edition ASTA, Andy Posterick from Fort Smith, AR will walk us through the case he’s bringing to his local utility board: shifting from per gallon water fees to a fee structure based on street frontage. We’ll explore:
- Why most water system costs are tied to the network, not the marginal gallon
- How vacant parcels benefit from infrastructure without proportionate contribution
- How a frontage based model could reshape incentives and financial sustainability
Members are welcome to jump in and help pressure test the idea.
