HomeMy WebLinkAboutMarin Municipal Water District Special Presentation PPTMMWD is proposing to raise water rates to:
•invest in our aging infrastructure,
•better manage long-term debt,
•responsibly manage our watershed,
•continue to offer the level of service our customers expect from us.
The proposed rate changes include two main components, effective 7/01/2019:
•An increase to the water use and fixed charges averaging a 4% revenue
increase to keep pace with inflation and fund MMWD’s ongoing operations
and maintenance needs.
•A new Capital Maintenance Fee (CMF) to fund investments in critical water
system projects, projects to reduce wildfire risk on Mt. Tam, and may be used
to fund debt service on existing and future capital projects.
