LEGAL NOTICE OF PROPOSED INCREASE IN WATER AND SEWER RATES FOR CUSTOMERS
OF MAPLETURN UTILITIES, INC.
Cause#46291-U-Water
Cause #46292-U-Sewer
Notice is hereby given that Mapleturn Utilities, Inc. did on August 21, 2025 file an Application with
the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission to increase the water and sewer charges to customers of Mapleturn Utilities Inc. Â
Mapleturn Utilities, Inc. is a Not-For-Profit utility that provides water and sewer to the communities, homes, and businesses on Mapleturn Road in Morgan County.
This application was filed pursuant to Indiana Code 8-1-2-61.5 without the necessary cost of a Utility
Regulatory commission hearing; however a public hearing by the Utility Regulatory Commission may be
held if any public or municipal corporation, ten (10) individuals, firms, corporations or associations or
ten (10) complainants of all or any of these classes affected by the proposed rate change requests a
formal public hearing by filing a written, signed request with the Secretary, Utility Regulatory
Commission, PNC Center, 101 West Washington Street, Suite 1500 E. Indianapolis, Indiana
- Said request must be received by the Utility Regulatory Commission within forty (40) days after
the date the application was filed with the Utility Regulatory Commission and declared complete. In
addition, a public hearing may be held if the same is requested by the Utility Consumer Counselor.
The proposed rate increase for water requested by the application is 30.77%. The proposed rate increase for sewer is 49.26%. These increases will result in monthly bills of $136.28 for combined water and sewer. This is for a typical household using less than 7000 gallons of water and it does not include Indiana state sales tax. All non-recurring charges and the use schedule remain the same. Â
In the absence of a written request as provided herein, there likely will be no hearing conducted by the
Utility Regulatory Commission on this application.
