The published water-rate framework is described as Fixed meter-service charge plus a five-zone, two-tier residential commodity structure. The current December 2025/2026 rate sheet lists a 5/8-inch service charge of $57.50 per billing cycle, scheduled to become $63.25 in October 2026. Residential Tier 1 covers 0–20 HCF per billing cycle at zone-specific rates: Zone 1 $3.42, Zone 2 $3.60, Zone 3 $4.10, Zone 4 $3.75, and Zone 5 $3.80 per HCF. Tier 2 above 20 HCF is $5.21, $5.38, $5.88, $5.53, and $5.58 respectively. One HCF equals 748 gallons. The structure includes zone differences and a higher-use tier; a future rate effective date is recorded separately from the current rate..

At 5,000–7,000 gallons (about 6.68–9.36 HCF per month), all usage remains in Tier 1, producing approximately $22.85–$32.01 in Zone 1 or $24.05–$33.70 in Zone 2. The estimated water-only monthly equivalent is therefore about $51.60–$60.76 in Zone 1 or $52.80–$62.45 in Zone 2, before delinquency, service, or conservation-related charges. October 2026 scheduled rates will raise the 5/8-inch fixed charge to $63.25 per billing cycle..
