Landscape Irrigation Service

A new landscape irrigation rate will be applied to all “landscape irrigation” accounts. These will exclude irrigation meters using water as part of their business function (e.g. process water and nurseries) as well as when used for health and safety purposes (e.g. school athletic fields). New business service accounts will be required to install separate landscape irrigation meters. Existing accounts will be retrofitted where possible. Accounts not retrofitted will be prorated based on seasonal water use. The irrigation rate will be an inverted 3-block rate structure that will apply per hundred gallons of use.
