By adjusting both the base and excess water use charges, we aim to distribute the responsibility of covering operational costs more evenly across our customer base. This approach helps us avoid placing an undue financial burden on any single group of our users.
Average Residential Customer
For the average residential customer, the monthly base charge will increase to $23.53; an increase of $2.04 per month. The same customer will see the annual excess water fee increase from $2.50 to $2.95 per 1,000 cubic feet of water. This adjustment ensures that we can continue to provide the high-quality water service you expect, without placing an undue burden on any single group.
Other Customer Groups
Customers with larger meters, commercial customers and those requiring booster pumps due to their location will see larger rate adjustments. These changes reflect the actual costs of providing service to homes and businesses with higher demand or complex service requirements.
