Water Rate Cost-of-Service Study Section 1. Executive Summary HF&H Consultants, LLC | July 8, 2025 | Page 7 of 53 Customers with a separate private fire service are charged a fixed monthly charge that is graduated in proportion to the capacity of the service line. The current schedule of charges is shown in Figure 1-6. Figure 1-6. Current Fire Service Charges Source: Figure 4-2. Current Water Use Charge Rates The Water Use Charge is the product of rates per unit of metered water use multiplied times the metered water used during the specified billing period. Water is metered in “units” of HCF, whereby one unit (or HCF) equals 748 gallons. Water Use Charge rates are charged to four separate customer classes, Residential, Commercial, Landscape Irrigation, and Recycled Water customers. For Single Family Residential customers, the current Water Use Charge rates consist of four tiers that charge higher rates as the level of consumption increases. For Multi Family, Commercial, Irrigation, and Recycled Water customers, the Water Use Charge rate is a uniform rate7 per HCF of metered water use. All customers pay the same per HCF of water use. Figure 1-7 reflects all current rates. 7 This report distinguishes between uniform rates and flat rates. Uniform rates are constant charges per unit of water use that do not change depending on the amount used. Flat rates are fixed amounts that do not vary based on metered water use. Flat rates are most commonly used in unmetered water systems and for residential wastewater rates.
