A flat 5% rate increase was budgeted for fiscal year 2021 for all usage levels and meter sizes; however, this rate increase was delayed until fiscal year 2022 due to the COVID 19 pandemic. An intra-city charge was also added in fiscal year 2022 to charge the Wastewater Fund for customer service costs. This added $673,357 in revenue to the Water Fund in fiscal year 2023. Approximately 91% of Water operations are funded through charges for services. No rate changes are proposed for fiscal year 2023.

Use of Money & Property primarily consists of interest on investments and interest on past due utility bills.
