Monthly Water Rates
- 0 to 6,000 gallons $28.50 Minimum
- 6,000 gallons and up $4.75 per 1,000 gallons (Kgal)
Water Allocation Surcharge
Water Surcharge will be assessed when an account’s year to date usage exceeds the annual water allotment. Currently, the surcharge is $6.50 per Kgal of usage. This fee is to recover the District’s cost to obtain additional water rights for delivery.
Plant Investment Surcharge
When an account’s year to date usage exceeds the Plant Investment Allotment (# of equivalent taps x the yearly allotment of plant investment allowed per tap), a Plant Investment Surcharge will be assessed. The transfer of additional water will NOT remove this charge. Additional Plant Investments must be purchased to increase the allotment and reduce the Surcharge. Currently, the Plant Investment Allotment is $4.50 per Kgal in addition to the standard monthly usage fee.
Non-Potable Water Rate
Usage through the non-potable systems in limited, specific subdivisions is $1.50 per Kg
