Wahkiakum PUD commissioners discussed a coming increase in utility taxes at their February 7 meeting but took no action on the matter. The Cathlamet Town Council passed a resolution in December to increase their utility tax from 3 to 6 percent, and the new tax rate goes into effect February 18. That timing does not coincide with the PUD’s regular meter reading schedule and might necessitate the expense of an additional meter reading cycle, said PUD Auditor Erin Wilson. She reported she has been in conversation with Mayor George Wehrfritz a...
