To:  Seneca Lake Water District Residents: 

As you may be aware, Seneca Lake Water District purchases water from the Village of Waterloo.  The Village in 2020 raised the rate per thousand gallons of water by twenty cents to Seneca Lake Water District. The Varick Town Board was, through the budgeting process, able to absorb this increase resulting in no water rate increase to the district’s consumers in 2020.  

The Village of Waterloo once again has approved a water rate increase for 2021 in the amount of twenty-five cents per thousand gallons of water resulting in a total increase of forty-five cents per thousand gallons over the past two years with the Village projecting further increases in the future.  

On May 4, 2021, the Varick Town Board, to compensate for these increased water costs, approved water rates be raised by twenty-seven cents per thousand gallons of water beginning with the second quarter billing cycle. The rate increase is as follows:  

$4.19 /1,000 gallons of water with a $13.57 minimum fee for the first 3,239 gallons.

This increase will take effect with the start of the second quarter water billing or April 1, 2021.  

As a reminder, the Town of Varick is now collecting water and sewer payments.  All payments should be remitted to:
