WASA Fee Hikes Spark Outrage | Trinidad and Tobago News

from Trinidad & Tobago News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Former Public Utilities Minister Marvin Gonzales is sounding the alarm over alleged secret fee hikes at WASA, claiming inspections and approvals for new developments now cost up to 700% more—ranging from $150 to $1,200 for residential units, $200 to $1,500 for commercial, and a 300% jump for industrial. He accuses the agency of bypassing consultation, keeping outdated pricing online, and placing an unfair burden on builders during tough economic times. Gonzales is demanding the resignation of the Public Utilities Minister and WASA’s leadership, calling for transparency—and we’re waiting for official responses.
