Development Costs

Capital Expenditure Charge:
All development—including single family homes—is subject to this fee. See details in the Bylaws page.
Upgrades for new development:
If your project increases water demand and mains need upgrading, you’ll pay for the upgrades. If an engineer’s report is needed, you’ll cover that cost too.

🏡 Important Considerations

Is There Existing Water Service?

If the property is undeveloped or unoccupied, expect extra costs to set up water service.

Is Your Property in the District?

If your property isn’t within the District boundaries, you won’t have access to water service or fire protection.
Our boundaries are irregular—please double-check your property’s inclusion before purchasing.

Outside the District?

You can appeal to have the boundaries amended to include your property.
This process takes time and may involve extra costs to connect to the water system.
