The costs of the sewerage treatment has to be spread out to the users some how. Some jurisdictions cap the number of gallons for sewerage at say 5,000. This helps with the cost of water for the grass but then you sewerage cost per gallon has to be higher because you have the same total costs to spread over fewer gallons. By the way manually control your sprinkler and you will use less water.
