KINGMAN – Kingman sanitation service rates could be going up early next year for some customers. Yet to be scheduled public hearings could see the Municipal Utilities Commission considering increasing solid waste program rate hikes in August that Finance Director Tina Moline said could be implemented in January or February.

A year-long study of Kingman’s solid waste program was the focus of 75 minutes of presentation and discussion during the May 19 city council meeting. Council directed its consultants and staff to move forward with activity and a public hearing schedule that could result in rate increases in early 2021.
