New Water Rates Beginning December 1, 2022

The KCWD#1 Board of Directors has completed their annual review of District 2022-23 budget costs and has approved new water rates for Fiscal Year 2022-23 at the November 16, 2022 Board Meeting.  The new water rates will go into effect December 1, 2022.

The fixed monthly rate has increased from $20/month to $28/month.  The variable rate remains the same at $1.50/1000 gallons.

The new rates are as follows:

Monthly Base Rate (MBWR):  $28.00/month

Metered Actual Water Use (MGUR):  $1.50/1000 gallons

Important!  During the winter months, if meters are not being read, Patrons will be billed only the Base Rate of $28.00/month ($56.00/two months).  The June bill will “true up” the billing for Patrons' actual use over the winter months, billed at $1.50/1000 gallons.  Alternatively, the District may use your past actual average use to estimate and bill for the monthly use during the winter, in order to minimize the "true up" billing in June.
