The City of Ottawa is making the right choice by changing the structure of water and sewer bills, a research group says.

Canada’s Ecofiscal Commission, an independent group of economists who look for solutions to improve Canada’s financial and environmental outlook, published a report on Tuesday highlighting the importance of properly funding drinking water and wastewater systems.

Ottawa is cited as one municipality that’s starting to do a better job of setting appropriate user fees to pay for the maintenance of infrastructure.
