Water Rates

Water rates are structured to support the delivery of safe, clean, and reliable water to homes and businesses while encouraging conservation and responsible use.

Water rates are set by the Public Utilities Commission on an annual basis. These rates are designed to cover the costs of maintaining and upgrading the water system infrastructure, ensuring continued access to this essential resource.

Understanding how water rates are calculated and what factors affect them can help you manage your water usage effectively.
