Council approves a new water tariff

Households will pay more for water above the first 6 cubic metres a month.

By Amani Otieno, council and transport reporter · · Corrected Sat 25 Jul

The council has approved a new water tariff. Households keep the same price for their first 6 cubic metres a month and pay KSh 85 per cubic metre above that.

The water company says the change pays for pipes to Mbalini and Kora, where families still buy water from carts.
