Water Rates
Your Monthly Water Bill
Monthly bills consist of a fixed service charge that remains constant every month and a tiered charge based on water consumption. Customers may enter a higher, more expensive tier as water usage increases. Typically, customers experience higher bills during the summer months due to increased irrigation.

Street Light Fee
To cover the rising costs of operating, maintaining, and improving street and signal lights, the Board of Trustees implemented a $3.48 monthly fee per water service account. Ord. 978, § 1, 2020; Ord. 807 §2, 2012
How are Fees Set?
Water fees are set annually by the Board of Trustees. During the December 10, 2025, Board of Trustees meeting, the Board approved Resolution 25-128, which set the Water Rates for 2026. The total increase is 8.2%. This increase is made up of a 5% increase based on the adopted 2023 Water Rate and Fee Study and an 3.2% increase which is directly related to the Central Weld County Water District (CWCWD) increase and was determined to be the actual impact on the Town based on calculations and data analysis performed by staff.
