The 2025-26 schedule applies a 10-cent-per-unit water rate plus sewer disposal, drainage and fixed charges; proposed July 2026 figures are separate..

These descriptions are useful planning benchmarks; actual charges can change with meter size, usage, sewer averaging, local taxes, drought stages, or account-specific fees.
