The proponents of sewer dissolution say it will save taxpayers money. The facts disagree: The Greenville News calculated that sewer charges for more than 40,000 residents in the Gantt, Parker and Wade Hampton districts could increase by an average of 52% annually if the consolidation plan is approved. More than 50,000 residents in the Berea, Taylors and Marietta districts could see their yearly charges decrease by 7%. Those calculations are based on rate data supplied by MetroConnects and a consultant's financial analysis.
