Current Water, Wastewater (Sewer) & Garbage Rates

The City’s Code of Ordinances require automatic annual adjustments in October based on the US Consumer Price Index (CPI). These adjustments allow the city to sustain the reliability and the safe operation, of city-provided utilities. The ordinances that mandate these adjustments were approved by City Council in 2016 and are necessary to pay increases in the cost of operating, maintaining, and repairing city-provided utilities.

NOTE: Last year (FY2021), no rate changes were made to any of the City’s utility rates.
