Curious about the Board's role when it comes to water service in your town or city? Let's dive in... 💦

The Board regulates municipal water utilities by:

🚰 approving rates and service terms
💰 approving spending on infrastructure (like pipes, equipment, buildings, etc.)
🧑‍⚖️ handling customer complaints

When a utility wants to change rates, it must apply to the Board with a detailed rate study.

Before approving spending, the Board asks questions like:

✅ Is this project or purchase really needed?
✅ Is now the right time?
✅ Is the cost reasonable?
✅ How will this impact customer rates?
✅ How will the utility be impacted?

Bottom line: No amount can be included in customer rates until the Board approves.
