CCWD Weighing Potential Water & Sewer Rate Increases at March 28th Meeting

San Andreas, CA…The Calaveras County Water District Board is back in action tomorrow with a full agenda. The biggest item to most of their rate payers will be item 4c under new business. It is “Discussion / Action Regarding Proposed Water and Wastewater Rates and Setting Proposition 218 Public Hearing” which means that after several years of holding their rates steady there is a need to inch them up a bit with a proposed 1.7% water rate increase and a 4.1% sewer rate increase.

Attached is a presentation that was given to the board ahead of them making a decision at their March 28 CCWD Board meeting when they will make a final decision on sending out a Prop. 218, which is official written notice to all customers that a rate increase is being proposed. That decision triggers a 45-day window of public outreach. Final rates would be voted on at the May 23 meeting, and the rates would not go into effect until July of this year.
