WATER & SEWER RATES
|
Rate Changes,
October, 2010.
As a result of the
mandated conversion to surface water, the District’s
monthly payments to the North Harris County Regional
Water Authority went up sharply, and the District
also incurred other costs. The District changed its
water rates, as follows:
(A)
INSIDE DISTRICT: The rates were simplified. The
basic structure became $7.68/unit/month for 2,000
gallons, plus $3.84 per additional 1,000 gallons
(including NHCRWA costs; no surcharge).
(B)
OUTSIDE DISTRICT: The surcharge for NHCRWA costs
increased from $1.96 to $2.47 per 1,000 gallons.
These changes took
effect with the bills mailed in early November. They
are reflected in the tables below. |
