If you’ve noticed your water bill going up, it’s not due to rate increases. In fact, the District has not raised water rates in many years and the RWA lowered its rate three times over the last two years.
The most common reason for a higher bill is increased water usage. With spring here, irrigation systems tend to run more frequently, and many residents are power washing homes, driveways, or washing vehicles. These activities can add up quickly.
To keep a closer eye on your water usage, the Board recommends downloading the EyeOnWater app. It’s a great tool that allows you to monitor your consumption and can even help detect leaks. Many homeowners have discovered leaks in their homes or sprinkler systems using this app.
For more information on understanding your water bill, available tools for tracking your usage, and helpful water conservation tips, visit the District’s website. You’ll find a helpful three-document set under Documents > Knowing and Understanding Your TNW Water Sewer Bill.
Still have questions? Feel free to reach out to the Board via email, or better yet, join us at a monthly MUD Board meeting. We’re always happy to help.
