Proposed 2010/11 Budget and Rate Adjustment Overview for SCWA

The SCWA requires compliance with state and federal drinking water regulations to ensure a safe, reliable water supply for its customers. The proposed budget includes a revised wholesale rate increase of 6.93% due to regulatory requirements, declining water sales, and increased service levels. Significant cost-cutting measures have been implemented, including management staff reductions, resulting in overall savings of $400,000. The average household will see an increase of $1.35 per month. Key documents outline the operational obligations and rate structures for water services.
