Rate Changes
The District’s complex water, sewer, and recycled water systems need ongoing maintenance, replacement and improvements. The District’s Board of Directors adopted new rates to fund the capital improvement program. By investing in our system today, we will lower long-term costs, protect the environment, and ensure long-term, quality service.
At the May 15, 2025 Board Meeting, the Board of Directors adopted new water and sewer rates for the 2025-2026 fiscal year. These rate increases will fund the water and sewer pipeline replacement program and help to keep up with increasing construction costs. For more information on what projects the rates will fund, visit LINK.
The District continues to actively pursue grant funding. Over the last 10 years the District has received more than $18 million in grant revenue and $79 million in low-interest loans to help offset rate increases. By successfully securing grant funding and operating efficiently, the District continues to have the lowest water and sewer rates in our region, even with the proposed increases.
