Billing and account research from public material
Provider-specific research notes are displayed separately from fields that contain only an unavailable-information marker. Read qualifiers in each note and verify current account terms with the provider.
- Billing frequency
- Golden State Water's residential accounts may be billed monthly or bimonthly depending on the route and account. Bills are due on presentation, and the printed statement controls the service period, meter read, amount due, and due date.
- Rate structure
- The CPUC 2026 Metropolitan District Schedule ME-1-R for Golden State Water Region 2, which includes Hollydale, uses increasing Ccf blocks: Tier 1 is the first 9 Ccf at $5.215 per Ccf, Tier 2 is the next 12 Ccf at $5.997 per Ccf, and Tier 3 is use over 21 Ccf at $6.897 per Ccf. A 5/8 x 3/4-inch residential meter has a $34.86 monthly readiness-to-serve charge. The bill can also contain authorized temporary balancing-account, CAP, water-conservation, drinking-water-fee, reimbursement, and other CPUC tariff surcharges or surcredits; one Ccf equals 748 gallons.
- Residential cost reference
- Using the 2026 Region 2/Metropolitan District tariff, 5,000 gallons is about 6.68 Ccf and produces approximately $69.70 before applicable surcharges ($34.86 service charge plus Tier 1 usage); 7,000 gallons is about 9.36 Ccf and produces approximately $83.96 before applicable surcharges, with the excess over 9 Ccf entering Tier 2. This is a water-only estimate; Hollydale's actual bill depends on the current statement, temporary surcharges, CAP status, meter size, and service dates.
- Meter reading
- Golden State Water bills from account meter readings and may render monthly or bimonthly residential statements. The reviewed Hollydale materials do not publish a local AMI conversion percentage or fixed route day. Customers should use the current bill's previous/current read, service dates, and meter number; MyGSWater provides account history and usage information, while the company should be contacted for the exact meter technology and any leak-alert capability at a particular premise.
- New-account deposit
- Golden State Water Rule 6 establishes credit and Rule 7 governs deposits. The reviewed Hollydale pages do not state one universal 2026 startup-deposit amount or a guaranteed credit-check waiver. A deposit can be required based on credit and account circumstances and may be required after delinquency or restoration; the company may require twice the average monthly or bimonthly bill to re-establish credit. Exact amount, refund timing, and whether the deposit can be waived must be confirmed for the premise.
- Activation or transfer fee
- No universal publicly stated 2026 routine activation or account-transfer fee was found for Hollydale. Golden State Water's tariff separately governs service connections, meters, deposits, construction, and special services. A physical connection, meter, inspection, or special-service charge is not the same as a normal name transfer and must be quoted for the specific address.
