Water Rate Public Hearing

Udated 3/17/2023

The District Board of Directors accepted and approved the cost-of-service study at the special board meeting held on March 14th. The preliminary Cost of Service Analysis and Agricultural Water Rate Study can be accessed here.

 

The District has not raised water rates since 2015, and the current rate structure has not covered operating costs, or allowed for necessary infrastructure improvements. A notice of the proposed water rate increase was mailed out on March 16th, and can be viewed here.

 

A public hearing on the proposed water rates will be held at the District's board meeting on May 2, 2023 at 7 pm, at the District office.

 

A meeting for water customers was held at the District office on March 16th to discuss water rates and availability. A copy of the meeting presentation can be viewed here.
