The user most impacted will be Lagoon. The amusement park's annual rate will increase about $ 6.000. from $37,000 to $54,000. At the same time, the rates for those using the least water, 1,000 to 12.000 gallons a month, and 13.000 to 25.000 gallons, will both stay at current levels. A user of more than 25.000 gallons a month will sec rates go from $1 per 1,000 gallons' to $1.25 per 1.000 gallons for any amount above that level. 1 The rale increases were first proposed in June as part of the city's 1995-9- 6 budget.
