Interesting. There are different apples and oranges in our baskets. My basket just holds water... I pay: 12 CCC for that $76.80 Google says 12 ccf =8,976.62338 US gallons Call it 9,000 gallons By your rates, it would be $8.00 + $4.03 x 9 = $44.27 cor.net That would be about what my rates were in the early 2000s before we were told to conserve and they didn't have so many pensions to pay. It looks like they bill your sewer charges with your water bill. Ours is billed with property tax and based on our water usage in the winter when we don't water lawns... I paid $348 this year for sewer... much more than you would pay for maybe 7 CCC or maybe 5,000 gallons. I'm not sure what solid waste fees are... maybe similar to the fixed fees we pay? Drainage seems to be more flood abatement which would be added to our property tax bill I believe. $348/12/5 = $5.80... about double what you pay for that amount of sewer use. Thanks for the info
