July 2008 Water Rate Increases Proposed - Public Hearing To Be Held On May 16
The Village Center Community Development District (VCCDD) will be holding a public hearing on May 16, 2008 to review a state-mandated water-conservation rate structure. If the new state-mandated conservation rate structure is approved at the May 16 meeting, the new rates will go into affect in July 2008.

The VCCDD has posted links on their web site to the proposed water rate increases.

784...

I have looked at this document before and still can't make sense of it. When it refers to water usage is it speaking to potable, non-potable or both? The numbers they show for current rates don't match my last bill. For perspective, I am in Sabal Chase and am serviced by No Sumter Utility, SWFWMD.

My last bill (low usage) was 3210 gal potable for 5.26 = $1.64 per 1,000 gal
Potable water base charge 7.65
Sewer base = 11.04; sewer usage 12.71

4390 gal irrigation = $1.18 per 1,000 gal; irrigation base charge 5.20

I have no idea...there was a thread about irrigation water bills and everyoine was focusing on that. I just happen to run across this but your right..the number do not jive with my bills either..even the base water rate.

Maybe someone will go to the public hearing on friday (may 16th) and educate us.
