Northampton, Bucks County Municipal Authority Holds Water and Sewer Rates Steady for 8th Consecutive Year

Northampton Township, PA [November 10, 2025] — The Northampton Bucks County Municipal Authority (NBCMA) is proud to announce that water and sewer rates will remain unchanged for the eighth consecutive year. This milestone highlights NBCMA’s strong financial management, commitment to exceptional customer service, and recognition of the lasting benefits of local ownership and control.

Despite inflationary pressures and rising costs across the utility industry, NBCMA has maintained stable rates through efficient operations, strategic planning, and smart infrastructure investments. Current projects include upgrades to improve water quality and system reliability, along with modernization initiatives designed to meet the community’s needs well into the future.

“Our ability to hold rates steady for eight years—while continuing to reinvest in our system—shows the real value of local control,” said Steve McGill, Chairman of the Authority. “Unlike investor-owned utilities, NBCMA has one priority—serving our community by delivering reliable, high-quality water and sewer service at the most affordable rates possible.”

NBCMA’s focus on customer experience and transparency continues to guide its daily operations. By actively engaging with residents and businesses, investing in staff training, and leveraging new technology, the Authority ensures responsive, professional service for every customer it serves.

“This achievement is about more than keeping rates flat—it’s about earning trust,” added Mike Sullivan, Executive Director. “Our customers know they can count on NBCMA to protect public health, safeguard our environment, and invest responsibly in the future of Northampton Township.”
