WATER AND SEWER SERVICE

Water and Sewer Rate Change as of July 2011

As you look over your water/sewer bill beginning August 1, 2011 you will notice some changes. The base rates for water and sewer are the same as last year ($24.50 for water and $50.00 for sewer). However, the new base gallonage for residential water has been lowered from 6,000 to 4,000 gallons, and the rate has increase from $2.43 to $2.75 per thousand gallons used over the base gallonage. On July 18, 2011, the Garibaldi City Council decided to restructure our municipal water rates to align ourselves with similar communities along the Oregon Coast. This decision was based on a recommendation from the City Manager, and was intended to provide a competitive water rate to help encourage growth and development in Garibaldi. For more information on this rate structure change please contact the Garibaldi City Manager at 503-322-3327

Sewer Rates
For a single family residence, the base sewer rate is $50.00 effective July 1, 2011. Commercial users are charged $43.75 for each residential equivalent unit (REU). REU's are determined by dividing a commercial customer's usage in the prior year by 4,000 gallons and 12 months (or 48,000). This number is rounded up, and represents the equivalent usage of a single family residence. Please contact Garibaldi City Hall for more details.

Deposits
A deposit, pursuant to GMC13.05.020 is required for all new applicants and equals the minimum monthly charge. For a single family residence, the minimum monthly charge is $74.50.
