Water rates
Provincial legislation requires operating costs come from the customers using the water and sewage services. A rate structure with both fixed service charges and varying consumption rates is in place.
Consumption charges are based on the volume of water recorded on your meter during a billing period. Based on the size of your water meter, the fixed service charges are the basic costs to provide the services, regardless of volume.
