Hempstead officials review rate hike critics
Water advocates called on Hempstead officials to push the South Nassau Water Authority to take over Liberty Utilities' operations in Hempstead before a proposed 37% rate hike. Liberty Utilities has submitted rate increase proposals of 37% and 29.7% for different districts, citing the need for capital upgrades, water treatment, and infrastructure replacements. Hempstead residents and officials are opposing the hike, with efforts underway since 2021 to transfer water services to the South Nassau Water Authority.
