This is what happens when the combination of rampant growth and neglect of the infrastructure collide: the City and County of Honolulu are projecting that sewer rates will have to increase 150% over the next 10 years instead of the next six, as a bill currently making its rounds through the Legislature estimated. Of course, if there had been increases in the previous 12 years, the jump in rates wouldn't have had to be so pronounced.
If sewer rates were tied to actual water usage, then people who live in the city and who don't have yards should pay less for their sewer service than those who live in outlying areas who use water for their yards. That might force some people to rethink their goal of moving into a house with a yard in the country.
