A household with more than four people may request additional water budget and then pays a $7.05 sewer additional-person charge per person beyond four.

Meter and infrastructure notes

The District reads all water meters on the last day of each month for billing. The public FAQ describes meter readings as monthly and the District's WaterSmart portal provides daily usage and leak-alert visibility, but the reviewed pages do not identify the meter manufacturer, radio network, or whether every device transmits through AMI versus another remote-reading method.
