It is planned to double the water tariffs in Crimea. The “chairman of the State Committee on Prices and Tariffs” Olga Igoshina informed about that at the meeting of the “State Council” Committee on Industrial Policy, Transport and Fuel-Energy Complex of Crimea.
According to her, starting from July 1 water, gas and electricity will rise in price by 15%, and starting from October 1 water tariffs will be increased by the same percentages.
Igoshina noted that heating and water tariffs cover only 60% of costs. At the same time Crimea has never received promised 1.5 billion rubles of compensation for the difference in tariffs. “They said to look for money in the budget of the republic,” the “committee” chairman added.
As a reminder, in Crimea electricity prices will be raised by three times within three years.
