A new utility ordinance in Waynesfield was the main topic discussed at the Waynesfield Village Council's Monday meeting.
Members discussed changes to the current utility ordinance, including the addition of a 10 percent late fee after payment is delinquent 10 days. Additionally, the account will be subjected to a shut off if the bill is delinquent after 15 days.
