The Big Sky Water and Sewer District unveiled a tiered rate structure at Tuesday’s meeting in the community center’s east room. The proposal charges higher per-gallon rates above a baseline threshold meant to encourage conservation. District manager Rick Henshaw presented slides showing projected revenue neutrality.

Residents from Meadow Village sat on the left side of the room. Residents from Mountain Village sat on the right. The aisle between them stayed empty except for a district intern refilling water pitchers.
