The City of El Dorado recently had a utility rate analysis created by Baker Tilly. This assists in aligning future rate increases with the funding needed for continued service, proposed capital projects, equipment and debt service. From this information, proposed rate increases were determined to meet the city’s needs this year and into the future.
