Notice of Water Rate Change
The Board of Directors and District staff have worked on system improvements and efficiencies to help minimize additional costs of service such as electricity and water replacement. However, rising costs and unfunded state mandates, including mandated conservation measures and statewide changes in drinking water standards, have offset District efficiencies. After a comprehensive rate study, several public workshops, and a public hearing, the Board of Directors approved a multi-year rate change on May 6, 2020. The new rates were to be effective July 1, 2020, however the Board temporarily deferred the rate increase which will now be effective February 1, 2021, and will be reflected beginning on your March 2021 bill. The rates indicated in the schedule below are the maximum as approved by the Board of Directors and will be considered each year during the budget process.
Water rates for all customers of the Phelan Piñon Hills Community Services District are scheduled to change beginning with the March 2021 bill. These new rates will be effective February 1, 2021, and will reflect on the March 2021* billing statements.
*The rates will become effective to coincide with the reading of the meters that occur approximately one week prior to the effective date indicated above.
**The 07/01/2020 effective date was temporarily deferred by the Board and will now become effective February 1, 2021.
If you have any questions, please contact the District at (760) 868-1212.
