Easy for customers to understand and is easy to administer, like the County’s current rate structure.
For example, a residential family uses 20,000 gallons of water in a quarter. Using the simple rate structure, the customer would be charged for 20,000 gallons at the current water rate ($5.00x20) plus 20,000 gallons at the current sewer rate ($9.00x20) for a total of $280.
