Frequently Asked Questions



What Services Does My Bill Cover?

Utility fees support the continued efforts to enhance the reliability of the city’s drinking water, wastewater, reclaimed water, stormwater, and sanitation utilities. Fees also support those utilities' operations, maintenance, and infrastructure to meet our community's current and future needs.

Do Any of My Tax Dollars Go Towards the Water or Wastewater Systems?

The water and sewer system are totally funded by the fees collected, not tax dollars.

Why Are Rates Changing?

As our infrastructure ages, investing more in repairs and replacements and updating systems utilizing modern technology becomes necessary. To maintain and preserve our infrastructure, continued investment is required. Utility fees will continue to be evaluated annually to ensure safe, reliable service. Additionally, chemicals and staffing costs tend to increase with the typical average cost of living index as well.
